The
storyline for this series is filled with adventure, heartache, mystery, and a
touch of the supernatural. The characters in the story are all wonderfully
conceived and full of flaws, idiosyncrasies, and endearing qualities. Even
those you want to hate you begin to love..just a little! Certainly it is enough
to keep most people thoroughly entertained and focused on reading far past the
time they should be snoring softly into their pillows. My husband laughs when I
say “sure, just one more page,” or “be right there, just have a few pages left
to read” as he knows it will be ages before I raise my bleary eyes from my Kobo
reader and join him in the real world. But isn't that what many of us love
about reading? The escape from reality into a world that is more exciting,
romantic, prosperous, wonderful than our own? So if you are wanting an escape from
your life for a few minutes – try a book. And if you feel that a Diana Gabaldon
marathon isn't appealing – there are thousands of other wonderful books that
could be just what you are looking for!
So now as I
begin to reach the light at the end of my reading tunnel I am feeling just a
bit sad. All readers know that reaching
the end of a great story brings a feeling of accomplishment but also a measure
of sadness as the magic of the story can never really be captured again. So if
you have read something wonderful let me know! I should be ready in 2-6 months
(finger's crossed!).
