Cool isn't it? It reminds me that books are really so patient. My dad was an AVID reader and book collector, which growing up I always thought was kind of lame. But now that he's gone, and I'm in my mid-adult years, I finally *get it*. The books that I once passed over are all still there waiting for me to 'discover'. I love that!
Yes, having the time to read really is the thing . . .
'The Help' was such a disappointment for me - and I've lived in the South! Sure people speak with a dialect there, but they sure don't write in a dialect. It's just so weird to be reading a southern accent. After 15 pages I had to give it up.

I LOVE this! Printing it out and posting on my wall at home.

I love it! I have so many books waiting for me on my shelves!
I love the font on this, and of course the statement is true. If only I had more time for reading!
And I didn't know "The Help" was written in dialect - I had been looking forward to reading it but that does put me off a bit ....
