The More You Read, The More You Know

To read is to fly: it is to soar to a point of vantage which gives us a view over wide terrains of history, human variety, ideas, shared experiences, and the fruits of many inquiries. ~A.C. Grayling

Where is your favorite place to read? Amongst the wildflowers?

In the country all alone?

On a sandy beach?

Can you read anywhere?

Is one enough?

Or must you read multiples at once?

Does pilfering though the pages of old tales warm your heart?

Are books better with pages tattered and torn?

What is your passion?

Do you prefer reading about fashion?

Or maybe historical landmarks?

Books are tied up gifts, waiting to be opened.

*I recently finished The Guernsey Literary and Potato Peel Pie Society, by Mary Ann Shaffer and Annie Barrows. I am currently reading The Shell Seekers, by Rosamunde Pilcher.

*Today's post is dedicated to the most fervent reader I have ever known. She frequents other worlds, ones of which I only dare to dream. My sister.
