#57 National Book Lover's Day

#57 National Book Lover's Day
August 9, 2013

No special pictures or anything on this fabulous holiday, but I couldn't resist the opportunity to share a few "funny because it's true" sayings.

1. The Inspirational Reading Quote:


2. The Oddity of a Young Reader:

Ok, I didn't have any cats growing up, but I'm expecting my Mom and sister to laugh at the reality of this cartoon. ;)
3. The Sad Reality of a Devoted Book Reader:

Admittedly, I have to stop myself from starting "a good book" when I know I don't have the time...

4. The Way I Should Respond to the Uneducated (but seldom do):


In other book-related news, I just started reading Rick Riordan's Percy Jackson and the Lightning Thief ( That's right J and H, get ready for a project). It's a great read! Everybody loves an easy, first person book. But I'm currently in the market for "must reads" to add to my reading list. Please let a comment and give me you favorite book titles and why you love them!

  1. Actually, you did have a fluffy white cat. . .
    or maybe that was a dog! not real of course.
    And, yes, I did laugh at the carton about the girl being sent to her room!

  3. Three great books...

    1. The Kite Runner
    2. A Thousand Splendid Suns
    3. And the Mountains Echoed

    These are all written by the same author and are set in the Middle East. I love them because: even though they are fiction, the stories present reality / the stories have tragedy that is followed by great redemption / they are just good!!!
