I made the time (by shooing my son away when he came with a board book with 'Poi appa kitta padikka sollu') to read two books in a month, something I haven't done in a while. I've been avoiding reading 'The White Tiger' for a year now, primarily because i'm sick to my stomach of the genre but when I did read it, I found that I rather grudgingly liked it. The second book was 'The Reader' - a book about Nazi war guilt which I found completely unbelievable and upsetting but which I finished out of sheer habit. So, there, i've squandered the time I stole from my child by reading two books that made me quite queasy in the stomach.
It can only get better from here.
Other books in line are - Buy-ology, Northhampton Abbey, Mistakes were made (but not by me).
On a different note, I hope that Sanjay discovers the joy of reading. He seems to be quite keen on knowing what happened to the hungry catterpillar but i'd be more reassured if he didn't hold the book upside down!
