Selecting Books Kids are addicted to I Pads these days, but When I was in school, I was Addicted to books. I could speed read through a novel in an Evening, much to my mom's chagrin, who Thought I was wasting my time. When Min died, my preference changed To non-fiction, especially to stories of Those who survived grief. I'm still not "into" fiction, although at Times it's hard to distinguish Between the two. I read with discernment. If I begin a book, and it's frivolous or Degrading, I stop. Why pollute my thoughts when there Is so much fine literature to expand My mind and soul? I donated four books today. Two are for the resale shelf to earn A bit of cash for my library. The other two were the ones I've written. I wasn't sure if they would be accepted, But the librarian said she will give them a Home on the local author's display. Will anyone see the tiny volumes Tucked away with the big books? I rather doubt that anyone will Check them out, But if they do, I hope they will Read them to the end and not think It was a waste of their time. |
