That is what I am. Utterly, Irrevocably destroyed. If only for a little while. I am sure some of you are rolling your eyes at me, or maybe shaking your head. That's okay. I know I'm strange. I think you'd feel destroyed too, if you read the book I just finished reading. Of course, Simone St James is a wonderful author and all of her books do this to me. I shouldn't have waited as long as I did to read it. I've had the book sitting on my shelf for months, having bought it when it was on preorder and receiving it the same day it came out.

I've got two big books (more than 800 pages) that I need to start reading but have held off on. You're liking the Steve Berry series?

@JESSY3236 That's great! I need to set aside a certain time of the day to just read. I'm so squirrely with it.

@ScribbledAdNauseum I was an avid reader when I was younger, I can't see that well anymore and reading gives me a headache.

@LindaOHio Yes it is. I am thinking about reading another of her books that I've read before. That will be nice since I've felt strange today. Not really sure how to explain it, but guess I'm still not over whatever made my stomach hurt last night.
