Here is a new word that I learned last week while I was reading The Life O'Reilly:
Recidivist: repeated or habitual relapse, as into crime.
Here is how recidivist was used on page 145:
"While moments earlier I shared your sentiments, with all due respect, I am gravely concerned about Mr. Nelson's recidivist behavior."
Please stop back tomorrow to read my review of this novel and there might even be an extra surprise! So did you learn any new words in your reading travels last week?

I looked this word up not too long ago, and had already forgotten it. Maybe I'll remember it now that I've seen it again. Thanks for participating!
