![]() ![]() Even though I know they’re fictional characters it’s hard for me to not fall in love with them. The characters in books become my best friends. I love the way books can just take me to places I never thought were possible. Even when I’m not reading it, the story, characters, setting, drama and feelings are playing through my mind. It’s all just one continuous scene driving me to read more. I never notice when one chapter starts and ends. I know it’s a really good book when I stay up until 2 a.m. I have spent a lot of time in the library browsing the shelves and have had to limit my time walking among them. I can no longer go to Barnes and Noble because I come out with at least 3 new books. ![]() I can’t buy a purse unless it’s big enough to hold a book. When I was younger, I used to stay up late reading by the light of my alarm clock so my parents wouldn’t know how late I was up. It only gets bigger and better with time. I also have a never ending “To Read” list that will never be accomplished. I have read so many books I can’t count them all. I openly admit that I’m a total book nerd. ![]() ![]() ![]() We will also notify you of the approval or rejection of your refund.
