Always Reading, Always Learning

As a kid, I never wanted to carry around multiple books, so I would only read one book at a time until it was finished.  Now I’ve got a few books going, and as always I’ve got a stack lined up to read “soon.”

All my reading material lives in the #3 basket at home.  Generally it is half to three-quarters full of books, magazines, or articles. Reading is one of my favorite hobbies, so I love having a few different books going at the same time. My Kindle is my favorite device for reading, but I never pass up free books, so I've got a number of "physical books" in basket #3 as well as e-books on my Kindle.
