Book Club

I am really bad at reading books - this is a fact. I've always told people that the problem is that I start to read a book and then hit a period of time, maybe a few days or a week, where I don't have time to read. After that period of time, I'll return to the book to have forgotten what has happened thus far. This is just one reason, there's probably many more.
I guess it just highlights that I've got a short attention span, or that I get bored quite easily. Either way, this isn't to say that I don't enjoy reading books. When I actually get to the end of a book, I've found that reading is as enjoyable as any other form of entertainment and have often found myself lost in the story (where the term 'often' is flippantly used).
It's been a while since I read anything, so tonight I picked up my unread copy of 'The Vesuvius Club' and aim to give it a shot. I've also signed up (finally! years after first seeing the site) to Shefari.

Another major hurdle being I get lost in the maze of character names.

Character names, if I'm into the book, aren't really a problem for me. But, as I share the same issue as Greeneast (ie, not much time to read), forgetting everything altogether is a problem.

I too am reading the Reapers Rainbow, I have found I don't want to put it down so I am looking forward to my holiday when I can finish reading it without interuption
