"Addiction"

It is precisely the word to describe my relationship with all things written. Fiction or non-fiction, poetry or prose, the written word has always been a thing of beauty to me. Nothing makes a day better than devouring a new delightful novel, or rereading a book that has become as familiar as a well-worn path. Some books I read for the characters, others for the style, others for theme... there are just so many reasons to love a good book. While I very much wish I could enumerate in full the many books and authors I have come to adore, I fear there there simply aren't enough hours in the day. Here I can at least share a bit of what makes me love the written word.
