A New Kind of Date


What kind of books do you like to read?  Novels?  Motivation/Personal Development?  Fitness?  Magazines?  Text books?  It has always been so easy for me to get lost in a good romance novel {sigh}!  I just love escaping to the perfect world of a non fiction book :)  

Since I met Rhino he has always been reading non-fiction/personal development books.  He will read everything from Chiropractic, Business, Money to Faith.  When we first started dating he bought me a few self development books and of course they still remain unread since they did not grab my attention within the first twenty pages.  In the past few months I have been reading some more books on passion and soul purpose that I have found very interesting.  I can finally see how Rhino is using the books to push himself and expand his knowledge in new ways.  However, I never thought he would be able to see my love for a good novel until we bought The Hunger Games.  

We bought it on our way to pick up our kiddos from my sister's house.  Since I was driving he read me the first few chapters aloud and just like that he was hooked ;)  He will deny if you ask him, but we read the whole first book together.  It was actually a great way to spend sometime quiet down time with each other versus being on Facebook or Pinterest ;)  I am excited to get the next book and of course go to the movies as they come out.  :)
