Another one bites the dust

I haven't been on here much lately for various reasons.
One of the reasons is that I've started playing dumb games on FB.
I know, I know, waste of time... but it is my time to waste.
The second is that I've been reading, a lot lately.
In fact, I've read 3 or is it 4 books since the first of the month. Honestly, it might even be 5 books.
I just finished Days of Grass by Tanith Lee. I won't say this was a terrible book, it wasn't, but it wasn't all that great either.
Looking at her bibliography, I don't remember ever reading any of her books, but I do have one in the bathroom, if I can ever remember to take my glasses with me when I go in there.
I did rather stop playing the games to finish the book. I didn't find the end very satisfying. I hate it when you are getting near the end and you feel that the writer kind of cops out on the ending.
Or maybe I'm just expecting more from a book written in 1985... I will have no trouble passing this book on to some other victim... I mean reader.
Read any good books lately?

@mysdianait most of the time, the games are mostly helpful when there is chat running beside it, so I'm talking while playing, the interaction really helps

@ElicBxn So you get really engrosses in both reading and games if they manage to distract from your pain

I really fell bad that I haven't read any books. I love to read and haven't done so in ages.. I too get sucked into some Facebook games, it happens to the best of us.. I also "waste" a lot of my prime could be reading time creating and adding more things to Zazzle and a few other sites.. and sometimes I feel it just doesn't pay off enough... but maybe somewhere in the future it will so I keep plugging along...
I really love Nora Roberts and I am so so so far behind on reading her books.. I got years of stuff to catch up on..

You are a glutton of books and a fast reader. I know nothing about the dumb games.

I don't know that this one was rushed, but after all the build up at the beginning, I felt the second half was kind of a let down, and the last 50 pages were like... "I don't know where I was going with this, so I'm just going to kill off the bad guys."

I've been reading a lot of books here lately. I'm trying to get through my long TBR list. So far a few of my favs have been November 9 by Colleen Hoover, Accidental Leigh by Melanie James, and Psychic Pets and Spirit Animals.
