Reading All Night is Alright!
I am so excited for Alison Weir’s new book about Ann Boleyn. I was on her website last night and saw that the launch is at the Tower of London … how cool and creepy. My husband, however, doesn’t think that’s a reasonable reason to visit the land of the Tudors. I am currently reading her book about the life of Queen Elizabeth from birth to coronation. I’m eating it up. I’ve read several books about her life as queen, but this look at her as a girl is really eye opening.
I was reading until 2 am last night and just kept turning and turning the pages. I work all day, come home, drive kids to practice/games and then have some “me time.” My friends don’t understand how I can stay awake. I have the perfect formula: a comfortable chair, an ottoman, my cat (who is wonderful to read with), and an OttLite lamp over my shoulder. With that lamp I can read for hours and my eyes feel great. There’s no glare or heat with the OttLite. The only problem is I can’t stop reading!!! Makes mornings a little rough, but that’s what they have coffee for.
