Introduction

Well I've had this blog for a while now and really have done nothing with it. So I figured it was time to introduce myself to the world. I wise professor once told me that when starting something new to remember the W's. Well I think it's the W's + an H. So

Who:
I am Bella Claybourne. I am a 25 year old student, married, and are expecting our first child come this summer. I am prior military but for the purpose of this blog it really shouldn't be relative.

What:
This blog is for my read, what I find as the good, the bad, and the ugly. I will try to give a brief over view of the book, if I liked it and if I didn't.

When:
Hmmm well how about now? Why put something off till tomorrow if you can accomplish it today? But as you can tell by create date, I am a huge procrastinator. So in trying to turn over a new leaf, why not start it today.

Where:
I could take this quiet literally; my husband says sometimes I'm over literal think Dr. Temperance "Bones" Brennan, or maybe Sheldon from the Big Bang theory. So I will most likely due all of my updating from my home, more specially, living room my "husband's Chair" since it is to most comfortable in the house (it's a big jean blue over stuffed chair that is aunt gave us and I love it!!!)


Why:
This probably my favorite question answer. I hated to read till I had my honor's English class sophomore year of high school. It was American Lit, so we read the classics. Because it was an honor's class we had to read one book, and they were not small books, each month, write a report, take a test, really tricky test too ok for a high school student i thought they were and of course the dreaded vocab test. I am has aspirations to be a "writer" some day but lets just say the whole grammar and vocab thing never stuck when I was a child and it has carried through to my adult life. Go figure. So due to this class I learned at appreciate reading. It wasn't until very recently lets say the last past two years or so I have come to love it. Due to circumstance beyond my control I have lived the past couple of years with a on again off again relationship with television. So reading became my new favorite past time. I find, with my over active imagination, that i enjoy reading so much more than watching a movie. Yes it's not always an activity I can share with my husband but we each have our own things. He can spend countless hours on the Internet looking at real estate dreaming about what we could buy on day or what we can afford right now, so I can spend mine reading. I have always been very hesitant to venture into new works. I had several bad experiences in finding things on my own. So I normally go off the recommendation of friends. This has proven 1. a more effective way to read and B. (yes I do that a lot, all numbers then one letter or vice versa.) an ever better way since I am now pregnant and my reading have a tendency to sneak into my dreams to avoid overly graphic things that can hit this pregnant gal's over active imagination into over drive. The other way I have been finding my new reads is a friend belongs to a book club, they send her a magazine every few months with the most resent published books she can purchase. I read the little excerpt and they go to the Internet to see if it's part of a series. If so I start at the beginning. It's how i found out about J.D. Robb aka Nora Roberts, and J.A. Jance.


How:
Well obviously I'm portable, since I stated earlier that I bounce from place to place with my computer I work off a dell laptop. I think it's important to note i have a wonderful Christmas present that I use, it's a laptop desk with fan built in so I never have to worry about over heating my lap or the baby for that matter! Well that's it for now. If you have any questions please feel free to ask... Although I'm sure I don't have that many followers out there, if any at all. I'm going to try and write about the books I've read recently although you can find me on goodreads too to see the books i have read. :)
