But I do go in for books. I love to own books. Though I read few books twice, I have filled every shelf in my house with books, have had more shelves made and filled those too. My books surround me like a cocoon. When I run my finger along the backs of my books they feel like the ribcage of an old familiar lover. Visit my shelves and you will learn much about me.

Joe Bennett sounds like a kindred soul. I’m going to do a search for “Beside Lovers.”

Beth - I'd like to read from him too.

LW - there's a definite theme to my shelves, as I'm sure there are to most peoples'.
