The Gnawing NEED to buy a book?
I seem to have this obsession when it comes to books. I know many of us chat about all the time. But it really is an addiction. I have this gnawing NEED to run out and buy books.
I love to be surrounded by books these days. I always have a book in my purse, hand, on my desk, everywhere with me. I am also a VERY slow reader. Some of you can read a whole 300-400 page book in just a few short hours. Me, well it takes me all week and if nothing else a whole weekend un-interrupted. So I'm slow. But I have to buy books. I always need a new book or three here. But the sad part is I don't know when I'll get to the books I'm purchasing. I buy three or several more, for the one book I got through.
I just love having them here and knowing I've got it for when I get to read it. And I know what I'm doing is helping the great authors out too, so that's my excuse.
Oh, and when those days come that the world is coming to an end... well, I'll be found in my cave of a den with several books in hand, ready to hide out until my hero comes to save me. ;) lol.
So what about you? Do you feel the gnawing and burning to go buy books?
