I'm a slightly bonkers 38 year old Civil Servant and also mum to 2 boys aged 8 and 5 (maybe thats why I'm mad!). My friend has been rambling on about bookxing for weeks so when I found a book on a bench in Trafalgar Square I just had to pick it up. I like reading all sorts of books, at the moment one of my favourites is Patricia Cornwell and I enjoy reading any sort of travel books. Not that I get a great time to read life justs seems to wizz by but hopefully with 2 weeks in the sun to look forward to I can catch up on some reading. Even as a child I used to read all the time and both the boys taught themselves to read before they had started school.
