I don’t remember a time when I didn’t have a stack of books I was reading. I’ve been a library hound from a very young age. Even today, wandering the stacks at our local library gives me joy. Even if I don’t know what I’m looking for, there’s something about seeing so many books that are just sitting there, available to read, that inspires me to seek new information – or a new story.
These are the books sitting next to my living room armchair at the moment:
One Summer, Bill Bryson
Data Science, Kelleher and Tierney
An Inconvenient Woman, Dominick Dunne
Bitwise, David Auerbach
There are more on the shelf next to me and across the room. And if that’s not enough, Jenni’s pile is even bigger. It’s comforting to know that there’s always something to pick up and read.
Also another reminder of why libraries are so important to our society, and why keeping titles- any titles- available to the public is crucial to the understanding of our world and different cultures.
Oh, and it’s just fun to read.
