I love books

I love books.  Always have.  I can recall as a young child the feeling of being transformed to a new land or adventure through books and loving it.  I married someone who loves books...maybe even more than I do.  Needless to say our home is filled with books and Paul won't let any of them go.  Every room has books...novels, history, cookbooks, self help, coffee table, design, sports, religious, fiction, childrens...we love them all!  
I am reading a wonderful book right now and when I really love a book I find myself recommending it to everyone I love. I even end up buying a copy for at least one friend.  I haven't even finished my current book and I've sent Mom a copy.  I hope she loves it as much as I do.  As I grow older, I often find I am still transformed by reading a book but often its my character that I want to transform...I read a beautiful story set in France and I vow to relearn my French (which I am about to do in fact!) or I read an incredible story about an incredible woman and I too want to be more than I am being. This book is definitely inspiring and I hope I will once again be transformed by reading it!  Maybe it'll even stick!
