I happened to see this link appear in the referral stats of my blog and I thought I would see what was being said. Well, it's difficult to have something eloquent to say to those who just
know that it is "doubtful" and "stupid" for someone to be capable of reading (with full reading enjoyment and comprehension) 500+ books a year (for the record, I'm actually on book #402 for 2012, which is Anthony Shadid's memoir,
House of Stone, which I'll be reviewing next week when I cover the 2012 National Book Award finalists for Non-Fiction). I suppose you "got me." After all, there was
an exposé written in 2010 about how those books are
really read. After all, it is difficult for some to accept that there just might be others who have the talent for reading rapidly and with understanding, just as it's difficult for others to admit that some are smarter than them, better looking than them, or who were great at playing sports.
Now back to watching the MTSU-Western Kentucky football game on ESPNU. Reading just isn't 24/7 for me; I do love sports and having a social life as well
