Reading Times!

OK so over the break I read:
If I Stay and Where She Went by Gale Foreman and The Selection by Kiera Cass, not too much, I know.

Ha ha so this week I read The Firm  by John Grisham- more like continued to read and I read:
Monday- 10 minutes, 10 pages
Tuesday- 10 minutes, 12 pages
Wednesday- 10 minute, 11 pages
Friday- 2 hours, 132 pages
total: 150 minutes, 165 pages

Well, at first I really liked the book, but then I got kind of bored with it, and I don't know, this past week I have gotten really into it and it is getting really good and interesting:) This book was recommended to me by a friend and I am glad she picked it or I probably wouldn't have.
What I really have turned out to like about this book is how Grisham jumps from mainly talking about Mitch McDeere, the main character, and his interactions with people who help him realize that the firm he works for is run by the mob and he cant get out lest he be killed or go into witness protection with the FBI, who are offering to help him for a price to the firm and how they start to realize McDeere knows and how they plan on stopping him or figuring out what to do.
The plot line is very interesting and as you read you realize how realistic it all is, even when you don't really think of the US as having major mob families and such anymore.  I am close to finishing it and hope the ending is as climactic as I hope it will be.
