Peaceful

I am 50 pages into The Other Boleyn Girl. I had about 2 hours today to read and so I made the most of it. So far, I'm intrigued. There's something very peaceful about reading this book...and about reading in general. It's a nice break from the computer and tv screens that dominate my life. I feel a lot better after reading. I now understand that whole late 1800's escapism through reading movement. What can I say? I'd have been a great 1800's lady, though I do love my showers :-D
