I read quite a bit in high school, but that fell apart in college. Now I'm like you- I boldly read and call it work ;)Elizabeth Seckmanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00045076826326574984noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7531557973175364584.post-9499033385162252262014-12-07T23:29:32.174-05:002014-12-07T23:29:32.174-05:00I grew up loving books, too!

(Really need to figure out how to make it a habit again!) And LOL, reading as research is such a great excuse, for sure! ;)Heather R.

I kept reading through high school and University but went into non-fiction from film, art to history.

Now that happens often while I'm reading children's books.Stephanie Farishttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10461865229341760836noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7531557973175364584.post-41033227906654262262014-12-05T14:30:59.597-05:002014-12-05T14:30:59.597-05:00That is the best reason ever for not doing the lau...That is the best reason ever for not doing the laundry! ;) I didn't read a lot of Baby-Sitters when I was younger, but I did Sweet Valley High.

Because Babysitters Club and Sweet Valley Twins were my top favorites. I was such an Elizabeth Wakefield (though I desperately wanted to be more like Jessica. I wanted to be a Unicorn so badly). I loved Nancy Drews (my grandma gave me the originals and I still have them!) and when I was really little I loved the Babysitter's Club little Sister series with Karen (Kristy's step sister)Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07181207761130079393noreply@blogger.com
