Hi everyone. It's been a little over a week since my last post. My intention has been to write every three days so as not to disappoint my fans! Ha! But the fall semester is fast approaching, and I've been spending tons of time prepping for my 7 classes this semester. This requires reading a LOT of textbooks, particularly in classes where I'm using a new book this semester. Because of all the reading I've been doing, I haven't taken as much time for leisure reading as I'd like. Thankfully, that should remedy itself when my schedule normalizes in the next couple weeks.
However, I need to remind myself that reading textbooks is still reading. I read mostly non-fiction anyway, so reading a textbook isn't always too much of a deviation from that. I enjoy getting new textbooks, and if it wouldn't frustrate the hell out of the students and the bookstore, I'd probably switch books way more often just for the fun of it. There's not much out there that beats a brand new book (I used to love brand new notebooks too, so I admit to being a little odd in this regard), even if it is a textbook. It's right up there with new car smell. No, I don't smell my textbooks. That's a whole other story that only my law school classmates would appreciate!
