Description:	Connie Ogle’s mother swears she began reading books in her crib at the ripe age of 6 months. She’s been working at The Miami Herald since the Palm Beach bureau had a bar in the lobby (let’s just call it the late ‘80s) and has been The Herald’s Book Editor since 2001. In between writing book and movie reviews, she reads everything from Entertainment Weekly to Faulkner and loves Martin Amis almost as much as she loves Clive Owen.

I cannot fall asleep without reading. I need to have at least 3 books around at a time because it's like a security blanket. My mind cannot be idle..Btw, Connie, love this space.

The only thing my parents ever warned me about re: reading was: For the love of God, you're 12 years old, we're OK with YOU reading "The Exorcist" but stop lending it out to your friends because we're sick of their moms calling us up and raising hell."

Connie, my mother warned me that reading too much might drive me crazy, like a dotty old granduncle or some such. Fortunately, she was right. Still reading, and crazier than ever.
