I know there are those who disagree with me. Emphatically. They want digital or nothing. They want to download every title on their wishlist. Not me. I want to look at my book shelves and let my eyes gaze the titles before selecting my next adventure. I love being surrounded by my friends. There is a certain solace in the peace of a library.
Can you have too many books? NO. No way. Not at all. No such thing. Next best thing to a book??? A book catalog. Yep! A chance to drink in the pages and add to my library, pick out gifts, salivate. I'm like a kid in a candy store. And then the big day arrives. The box is delivered. My anticipation never wanes. It grows with each order. I open the box and imagine the look on the face of the recipient. Priceless.
Can you borrow a book? Ummm... did you notice the beautiful weather we're having? Can you borrow a book? How do I say no politely? I'd rather buy a copy for you than loan one of my 'kids' to you. To have my kids in your hands while you eat your late night snack or if you catch a cold. I can't even bear to think about it. I know you'll be careful, but accidents happen. Shudder. Just wait until I get my next catalog. Shipping only takes about 5 days.
Speaking of books... How about a book companion???
