I read every day, but most of it is not very challenging, because I find the rest of my life challenging enough. I read to get away from that stuff. I have to agree with Otta I need escapism; the last thing I want to read when I finish work is something that melts the brain or stick my head in an oven give me smut Jackie Collins Jilly Cooper mixed in with Catherine Cookson. Does anyone know a good book on ghost stories love those too?
