I have been in a reading slump since the Olympics. Before then I was doing great (which may have been helped by being sick and not wanting to do much else) and was even what I consider "ahead" in my reading for the year. I have started, as of last night, FIVE separate books and have yet to finish a single one since Feb. 12. I do blame the Olympics for sucking the motivation from me. And I blame the books, too. I guess they aren't good enough to be read (or too long to truly get into quickly).
