<human>: Can you give me a shortened version of the text?

Little back story, I was "home schooled" by my mom. so last time I was In school was 1st grade. I never really went back and still haven't seems like it would take to long. I do have a HS degree but that's it. Since I was 9 I haven't read one book. My wife on the other hand loves books and I wanted to have something new to talk to her about because our marriage isn't going so great. She is on the 4th book of artemis fowl and in the last week I have finished the 1st artemis fowl and almost read the 2nd in 2 days most likely will finish tonight. My point being is this book is amazing never thought I would stay up till 12:30am because I couldn't put a book down they usually make me fall to sleep in 2 minutes reading.
<bot>: havn't read a book in 13 years. artemis fowl is my new addiction found because I'm trying to get into the same hobbies as my wife.
