Hey, look! A Musing Mondays question! Today’s is… “Who in your family (both immediate & extended) are readers, and who are not?”
I’ve sort of answered this in other posts, but I am enticed to answer it again because I get to say…
My husband! He’s a total reader! Hahahahaha!
Ahem. So my dear Scott has always been kind of a reader, but he’s been the one or two book a year style reader and the only reading books by Robert Jordan or Terry Goodkind or George R.R. Martin style reader. But then… then he married me, a move he surely regrets now! For a while, he would just humor my readingness, but then I gave him Elantris to read, and then the Old Man’s War series, and the Codex Alera, and he’s now reading the Dresden Files faster than I’m reading my own books! In fact, he’s read them so fast that he’s going to have to wait a few days for the next one to come from the library. I don’t know what he’ll do… I’ll have to give him another book to read. 🙂
I should totally put this on my librarian resume.
heh, I'm the book supplier in my house too. It's a bit of pressure to give a book to someone who only reads a few books a year (my husband doesn't read very fast – a few minutes before bed) and now I often have to find a book for my 12 year old son. As long as they keep reading..
I enjoyed your commentary today. Enjoyable reading.
I think sometimes borderline book lovers..like a book now and then types…just have to find the books or the genre that really appeals to them to take off.
I keep trying to influence my hubby to read, but he'd rather do suduko.
