Having been an English major my life should be filled with lots of books and many hours spent reading. Unfortunately once I graduated they fell by the wayside and every free moment I had was taken up by knitting. It's not that I didn't want to read, I was just to addicted to knitting that I was never able to put what ever project I was working on down to read for an hour everyday.

One of the things Niels & I discussed upon his return was the importance of taking out to read. So, last night after spending time at the National Museam of the American Indian, I sat down and began reading my first book of 2006, Swordpoint, by Ellen Kushner. I'm not that far into it, but so far I like it pretty well... Will keep you posted...
