"There are worse crimes than burning books. One of them is not reading them."
I love to read.
I have ever since I was a little girl.
Even before I could read, I would take the story books from my brothers [when they were trying to read to me] && tell them my own story with them.
I skipped grades because of my reading abilities.
I don't read as often as I should anymore.. && it makes me sad.
I am so grateful for my book loving parents.
Who have trained me well in books.
I love their room filled with several bookcases-- each filled to the BRIM with good books.
I am grateful that they are willing to share those books with me, && sometimes even let me keep them.
I am grateful for weekly trips to Bookmans, to trade in the books we bought that kinda sucked for new ones that have amazing potential.
I am grateful for the best tradition with my mom. The one where if we go INTO the bookstore we always walk out with at least one book:]
[I hope I can keep that tradition with my kids]
I love trading books. Sharing what books I love with others.
I love falling so much in love with a book that you stay up all night until it's finished.
Kyle doesn't like books :[
But I have learned that he enjoys me reading to him.
&& so I have learned to love to read to Kyle:]
One day [hopefully somewhere in the new future] I want to get several bookcases for my bedroom and have them full of books I love. I have a ridiculously long master bedroom where I have the perfect reading nook envisioned. I hope this dream can come true. It would be amazing.
I love to love to read!
