Why we read...

A great topic in the Los Angeles Times opinion section today on why we read. I loved it! Perhaps because I like thinking that other people can love something as much as I do. Or maybe it's because as humans we are constantly seeking affirmation from someone much like ourselves. Or maybe I loved it because the respondents all said things I feel in ways I would never have though to say them. Whichever it is, I came away with a sudden craving for a library, musty old books, and wishing I had time enough to just sit on the porch and read.
