Reading is like breathing to me. I do it to live. Upon waking up in the morning, I read the newspapers. We subscribe to two. I also read three news web sites. And then I will read my new emails. I will read my favorite blogs while working on my own. I read a lot and it’s not only books.

I love Reader’s Digest. I read a lot of it. I buy copies every month. I also read a lot of women magazines. And of course, I read a lot of reference materials.

So it’s read and breathe for me. Those are my essentials.
