Mildly Interesting

This is for strictly mildly interesting material. If it's too interesting, it doesn't belong. If it's not interesting, it doesn't belong.

This is obviously an objective criteria, so the mods are always right. Or maybe mildly right? Ahh.. what do we know?

Just post some stuff and don't spam.

I don't know exactly what she reads, but I am guessing it's also lighter fare, leaning on sci-fi/fantasy. Not that she isn't smart, she just is (like me) someone who prefers to read for the enjoyment of the story rather than the challenge.

Oh for sure. I love a heavy read when I have time time to enjoy it, but I can't eat 10lbs of beef for every meal. Sometimes I want a berry smoothie.

I used to love heavy reads, but the older I get the more it just wears me out. I just don't have the patience for such things anymore.
