I tried eating and reading simultaneously. Two things that I love. But it wasnt as fun as I thought. Guess I need a man to feed me while I read.

What's the last book you finished? Mine was the Golden Compass by Philip Pullman. I found the story quite good. I didn't have very high expectations but I've had that book on my tbr for a long time. How did you like the last book you finished?
