Why I chose the book

Once again, I have decided to read yet another book. This time, I chose not to read a fictional story. I felt that I needed to gain some kind of knowledge from reading. But as you know, non-fiction can be pretty boring if the topic does  not interest you. I took a step back and thought, "What do I want to learn?". The answer was simple. I wanted to learn how to make money. Now, I'm only 14, but I wanted to find a way to earn a little spending money for myself. That's how I came upon "The New Ebay".

Although it might seem a little weird to be reading a book about Ebay, I decided to give it a shot. I have a lot of junk lying around my house, and maybe I might be able to earn a little bit of money doing so. The book is basically a how to guide to getting started on ebay, and details several tips for selling success. I haven't started reading the book yet, but I'm hoping that it will help me on my venture. I have A LOT of old toys, video games, and stuff that I don't even use anymore, and I really want to get a little bit of spending money.

This is the first time, in a long time, that I've read something other than fiction. I'm kind of apprehensive about the experience, but I feel that it will be beneficial in the long run.
