Skipping to the end of a book, is okay.

Skipping to the end of a book is okay. Unless of course it is for school or it is required reading. I used to think that in order to be a good reader you had to read every single word on every single page. Now unless a book hooks me from the start and I want to read every word on every page I skip to the end of the book because I am not going to waste my time reading a book that does not interest me. On the other hand, books like Regina Doman's fairy tale novels are worth reading from start to finish. What I like about these books is that they combine fairy tales that we have heard all our lives with Catholic ideas and morals. The "bad guys" are those characters who have no morals or a well formed conscience. Yet, these novels also show the good characters struggling with their own temptations and moral dilemmas. I highly recommend these with the caution that the second two books in the series, Black as Night and Waking Rose, should be read by teenagers of maybe 16 and up becuase they deal with more complex moral issues that might not be understood by the younger reader.
