For the Love of Reading!

I love reading. Always have. My mother was a teacher, and taught me how to read at a very young age. She instilled in me a true love for the written word, which later translated into a desire to write!

And even to this day, even inside a busy life, I still absorb novels, still enjoy escaping into other worlds when I open a book.

Here's a great quote I just found from GoodReads, that says it much better than I could:

"Reading is the sole means by which we slip, involuntarily, often helplessly, into another's skin, another's voice, another's soul." ~Joyce Carol Oates

  1. Wow, beautiful quote! My parents both are huge readers, so I got it from them. My stepdaughter loves to read too! It's great!
