Day 16

Library Books
I'm reading a book called "Angry Housewives Eating Bon Bon's". It's totally a guilty pleasure book and it's actually really good. I was drinking hot chocolate while reading and I spotted a small drop of chocolate on the page and I thought that I must have spilled it somehow while I was reading. When I tried to wipe it off I realized that it was old, somebody else was drinking hot chocolate while they were reading this book. Then it made me wonder who all had read this book before me. I wonder if they did it just like me snuggled up on the couch with a nice warm blanket. Or during the summer time maybe somebody read it while they were laying out by the pool leaving smudges of suntan oil on one of the pages. Each reader leaving there imprint on this book as it goes from home to home. Who knows how many people have checked this book out maybe it was the rude lady that flipped me off while I was driving today and this book is the one thing that we have in common. Who knows. It also made me realize how unsanitary library books are.

  1. I never really thought about that. I get a lot of books used. I wish I knew everyones story. Like when you read a book you need to right a blurb about your life on the back cover and just keep passing it on. I love it!
    I am reading a fantastic book that you should read. It is called Redeeming Love. It is based on the book of Hosea in the Bible. It is phenominal. I think you would like it.
