My goal is to someday have a library in my home where I have to have a ladder to get to the ones way up top :-) I think the books find their readers... but thats just me :-)
Most recently I've had books pick me. There are some occasions when I go out looking for books, but I've found with things being so busy it's when I make a perusing trip to Barnes and Noble where books pick me. The titles intrigue me.
*Getting Financially Naked, with picture of a man and woman naked but covered appropriately with the title to keep the picture G-rated. Never would have though of finances in that way. I wondered what they had to say. Frankly, I really enjoyed the whole book
*The Faith club: a Muslim, a Christian and a Jew Three Woman Search for Understanding. Those are starkly different religions. I haven't been able to put the book down recently. What I've read really makes you think
*Just my Type-this was the most recent book that jumped out to me. It's an entire book on the history and importance of certain types. The history of comic sans that I have come to despise. It was a thick book too. What could they really have to say. I passed up getting it at that moment, but I did take a picture on my phone to remind that I want that book.
Titles and pictures are what pulls me into books or pushes me away as I peruse through Barnes and Noble.
There are so many good books to read. I always forget how much I love to read. It's like seeing an old friend.
I wish that was my bookshelf. :) I love books.
