There Is Always A Book Around The Corner To Read
Author: siggy
There is always another book around the corner. Sometimes I don’t know where they come from although I always remember who I “borrowed” a book from. There is no lack of interesting books although you can become a dilettante and only sample a book here or there and only get a narrow picture of what the author wanted to convey. There are some books, though, that are meant to be read that way. Open up the book anywhere and start reading. Novels obviously have to be read from cover to cover although I have no compunction to stop reading it if it does not keep my attention. I enjoy a good story and am partial to animal’s stories: authors who describe their special relationships to animals. My office has my favorite books and special books that are marked up that I would never lend to anyone. They are like “old friends” to me and I want them at my disposal if I need to refer to them. I can not see how much an I Pad can possibly replace my library and there is nothing like leafing through a book and then another. I like touching a book and turning pages and opening it anywhere. There is always an interesting book around the corner.
