Reading for days

I know I said I would be doing something productive but...
I just like reading.
I do have a note of caution though: reading

1. 'Hogfather'
2. 'The Handmaid's Tale'
3. 'Jane Eyre'

in just over a week and a half will do funny things to your thought processes.

'The Handmaid's Tale' got me to create an inner monologue. I had space in my head to create and play with thoughts, because the book was written as the protagonists stream of consciousness. This coupled with the fact that she was a deep but disjointed thinker made it a very refreshing read.
'Hogfather', was a Pratchett. It was witty, deep and scathing. More scathing than a typical disk world novel because of the overall hipocracy of Christmas idologies. Reading this made my mind go in more critical and idealistic directions. The incongous nature of thinking in critical and idealistic directions at the same time is not lost on me.
'Jane Eyre' was my Pandora. I was inspired by the openess and straighforward way of talking thoughout the book. 'Jane Eyre' is in wonderful contrast to the kind of writing I normaly go for (things by Jane Austin and Oscar Wild). I normaly go for linguistic acrobatics rather than sprinting to the point.
The result of my reading these three books has been a shapening of the way I think and commuicate.
Verbal sparing has been much more fun in the last couple of days.
I really need to get on to that cash book though.
