mysterious frankie: Jan 11, 2009; This displeases Dev- ..van. Shut up.

I got back into reading books for pleasure by reading aloud to my wife at bedtime. Having an audience who needs to know what the hell I'm talking about means I need to concentrate on the page to the exclusion of everything else, something I was finding impossible to do when just reading for myself. Even after I retrained myself to just sit down and absorb myself in a book, we never stopped the nightly ritual; it's a nice thing to share and I'd swear reading 3-4 chapters out loud every night has made me a better public speaker.
