 Thanks Nan!! I agree...and it is some of the BEST time that we spend together. He asks lots of questions about things when you read them. I bought the dvd of "Black Beauty" when he was smaller as he loved horses...then we read the book together, 2 chapters each night and he would get sooo into it. It's going like that for Narnia too. I love books and can't go without reading...I'll read almost anything with words--hopeless case. I hope he gets the bug too. I always think that books are better than movies, so much more detailed and colorful.

I like good mysteries but am never patient enough to read the entire book first and tend to read the ending before I'm done

Reading to kids before bed is one of the most important things you can do together IMHO. It also relaxed me and made for lots of warm fuzzy memories.

Like Christine- I love a good mystery. Stuart Wood, James Patterson, Mary Higgins Clark, Robert North Patterson, Stephen White, Dean Koontz, Lisa Jackson, Iris Johansen, John Sanford and Patricia Cornwell are just a few of my favorites.
Right now I am reading J.D. Robb's Remember When. Nora Roberts writes these mysteries as J.D. Robb. It is only the second one I have read but I am enjoying them. The first was Divided in Death and it was really good.
