This summer I have spent a lot of time reading. When I was young...growing up I spent my summers reading. I would read a novel a day, starting early in the morning and reading nonstop into the night until the book was finished. I started reading the George R.R. Martin novel, Game of Thrones when I watched the HBO series. I'm now on the third installment of the series. I'm telling you, if you read no other books, then read these. If you enjoyed The Hobbit, or Lord of the Rings, or the stories of King Arthur and his knights, then these books are for you. They are beautifully written. The one expectation I would say not to have of them is finishing them in one day. I believe the first book was about 580 pages. The Clash of Kings was 893 pages and A Storm of Thrones is over 1000 pages.
And, I guess in conclusion, reading has taken over most of my other hobbies this summer. But, it is my most dear friend. One that I neglected for a while. And you know how it is when you rejoin with an old friend. It's like no time has passed, and you pick up right where you left off.
