So next to writing and photography, i LOVE reading. Yeah, that's right, i'm a geeky bookworm and i'm SO not ashamed to admit it! I was raised on books more than television and even now, in my 20s and done with school, i read every chance i get- and i'm one of those addicts who CANT PUT DOWN A BOOK ONCE I START READING. My mom always says i'm going to get hit by a car one of these days because i read and walk sometimes too (awful habit, dont try it). Anyway instead of putting a list on this blog page of all the books i love and am waiting to love i thought i'd link you all up to an awesome website full of other book lovers (although they may not all be as geeky as yours truly ;) haha) So here is the site:
www.goodreads.com
and here's my profile there:
www.goodreads.com/profile/taya32
so you can all check out the books i've read, what i'm waiting to read, and what i'm currently reading :) you know... if you feel like it.
i'm always giving my friends books or recommending books or giving away books once i've read and fell in love with them... and i'm always open to recommendations so if you've read any good books lately, let me know!
happy reading!
Taya
p.s. i love the amount of back and forth brought on by my last blog- KEEP RESPONDING. keep writing. keep thinking. keep reading. keep loving <3

Here is a quick recommendation if you are interested in ecology the environment and good stewardship of the planet:
Good News for a Change: How Everyday People are Helping the Planet by David Suzuki and Holly Dressel
David Suzuki is a very famous and well respected environmentalist where I am from. Its a good read. Interesting and timely.

Ps- please don't read and walk in busy streets!
Somnambulist - Jonathan Barnes
Middlesex - Jeffrey Eugenides
A Short History Of Tractors In Ukrainian - Marina Lewycka (or anything by her, she's hilarious)
The Harmony Silk Factory - Tash Aw (for something a little Asian =D)
Enjoy!
I love the fact that you love reading! And thanks for the recommendations, I've been itching to indulge in a good book lately.
