Can you think of everything ( well except for cereal boxes etc LOL )- that you read yesterday? Books, newspapers, magazines, articles etc?

Thought it would be fun to see what a typical days reading was for you.

I read The mail On Sunday and it's accompanying Sunday mags.

I read a couple of Chapters of my current book  "The Headhunters" by Peter Lovesey.

I had a quick flick through Zest Magazine.

I had a quick read of a medical book to convince myself that my terrible backache wasn't something more serious ( it isn't!)

That's all - I think!

Good idea Helen! It's probably more than I think!

Started off with a few chapters of my current book in bed.

Then online, lots of random messages and emails, followed by my daily visit to the BBC where I was looking for info on the latest swine flu stuff specifically as well as a general browse of the news.

Flicked through the Boots Christmas catalogue during lunch.

Brief glance at my professional journal which came in the post, but TBH I don't really care about that lol!

Prima Pregnancy and Baby magazine in the afternoon with a cuppa.

Recipe book to check the cooking time and quantities of a few things for dinner, which I then ignored as I thought it was way too much food!

And finally a few more chapters of my book in bed!

Thinking about it, that's quite a typical day for me. I would be lost without reading!

Take care, Laura

Hi,

I've only just seen this so I thought I'd join in too.

Started this morning with a quick flick through the paper then completed a couple of crosswords, read some craft information in a magazine and tried to work out how to use a new gadget I've recently bought, I'm not good following instructions!

Lunchtime I managed a couple of chapters of my current novel and then went back to craft magazine. Have also read messages and emails and I will read my book again once I'm in bed .....

I do read cereal boxes etc, if anything has words on it I always do then sometimes criticise the grammar or, heaven forbid, bad spelling!

I can't imagine a world without books etc to read, any time I sit wherever I am I have to read.

Helen xx
