The Sunday Post/Sunday Salon: Reading is back and how!!

The Sunday Post is a weekly meme hosted by Kimba the Caffeinated Book Reviewer ~ It’s a chance to share news~ A post to recap the past week on your blog, showcase books and things we have received and share news about what is coming up on our blog for the week ahead.

I am writing a Sunday Salon post after a long time. To be frank, there was nothing to write. I was undergoing a massive reading slump. It lasted more than a year. I could read only 14 books from January to May. And half of those are kinda trash. 

However, things are starting to change.  I read 11 books in the past one week. Assorted. These include mystery, crime fiction, poetry, historical and of course, romance. I have not done that for a long time now! 11 books is a pretty good figure by any standard. One reason for this is, my telephone line was down which translates into NO net for five days! As I don't watch much TV, the only alternative was reading! I picked random books and finished those in one go. And yes, I feel good.

I am still in the midst of two books, and plan to finish one today. Hope this lasts and only then I can reach 50 books in 2012. I know that is NOT good enough but the way I was reading, it is NOT bad either. 

I have not taken part in any challenges. And if you have any suggestions, I am open to that.
