I am thankful for good books! I checked Jane Eyre out of the library before we left on vacation but didn't get a chance to start the book until a few days ago. Although it is a bit of a slower read for me (I have to check the footnotes every so often) I love it (so far.) A couple of summers ago Josh and I did a "Thomson summer reading program." If you earned 5,000 points then you got to go and pick out a new book. You earn a point per page and then different kinds of books are worth a certain amount of points. We decided to revive the program again this summer; and classics are worth 1,000 and since Jane Eyre is a classic- I am starting off with a bang this summer. I am thankful for good books- especially when they are worth a lot of points :)
