Taking a Break

In the first four months of the year, I've already read 60 books and I find myself having a hard time getting into the next book. So, I think I'm going to take a little well deserved break on my breakneck pace of reading. Knowing me, having said that, I will now probably read three books in the next three days. That's just how it goes sometimes.

Still, I have a hard time expressing what getting back to my reading habit has meant to me. I feel more centered in the world and more outside my own head. I forgot how much I tended to get wrapped up in my own psyche I can get which makes it hard to connect to my students.

Looking forward to the next few months I'm toying with the following themes:

• May: All books written no earlier than 2014
• June: Non-Fiction & Literary Non-Fiction 
• July: Anything I want because it's my birthday
• August: Mysteries (Maybe)
• September: Historical Fiction (Maybe)

Any Suggestions in these themes are welcome!
