I mentioned once I start a book, I have to finish it.
What I didn't say was...that it sometimes takes me a long time finish the book.
Occasionally for whatever reason, I have to stop reading the book and come back to it later.
It may be that I just finished reading a book that was not well written and doing two in row is too much or it could be that my frame of mind is not as conducive to the information that the book is about as I thought it was, the book may be to deep and require to much thought and I need something lighter or whatever the reason.
The book I started on last night is like that, but even more so.
First let me say that I love reading and studying about the JFK assassination. I have been doing so for over 40 years, 41 to be exact.
I can say without fear of being too wrong, that outside someone who is paid to study it, you will never meet someone who has read more about that subject, has more books about that subject and not trying to be boastful, knows more about that subject.
I mean I eat it up.
(think Kate Micucci, but with 40 yrs of time spent on it)
Anyway, last night I started on a book I haven't read yet, even though it came out some time ago, Me & Lee: How I Came to Know, Love and Lose Lee Harvey Oswald by Judyth Vary Baker.
This is supposedly the story of a lady who had an affair with Oswald and "knows" the true story about what happened.
I made it through 3 pages of the forward and I couldn't take it any more.
I knew when I started this book that the author was a lier but I was still willing to read her tall tales.
And I still am, just not at this time.
I can see that I have to adjust my mind and thinking when reading this book.
I need to look at it as a total work of fiction and not as anything that could be remotely true.
I will give it another shot when I am ready to do that.
