My Books
I really like to read. I usually read at least 3 books on the same time: On in Hebrew, my mother tongue, a another one in English, so I could practice the language and stay "up to date", and recently I've started reading in Spanish which is a new language for me and which I had learned during my stay in Barcelona last year.
I never read "bestsellers". At least not intentionally ( it happens that I read a new book that in time becomes a" bestseller"). I love the feeling of having a personal experience while reading a book, without feeling like everyone is sharing my "secret" on the same time…..I know it sound weird but this way I get to discover the best books ever.
The books I'm reading right now, happen to be "bestsellers"….I know….But I have a good reason for reading them: The Hebrew book is about globalization and I thought to use some of the information that is in it in my project, The English book is a very unique one that combines an autobiography of the writer (M. Satrapi) and also her own comics illustration of her life stories. I'm trying to get M. Strafi to participate in my project so….If any of you know her…..
About the 3rd book, I think there is no much to say. One of the most famous books ever. I read it because it reminds me of Barcelona and of all the "Cervants celebrations" that were there last year.
Well…That's it for the books…..

I don´t read books anymore! I download them from the web, and I read them on screen, or print a few pages at the time, or take the laptop to bed with me...
I can´t wait for the e-paper to become available!!

I understand what you mean about not usually reading bestsellers... I try to avoid bestsellers, but once in a while I read them too.
Reading in other languages... I should start do that too! I need alot of practice!
