Books, Books, Books

I really did not understand the book addiction. I used to read as little as possible. But now I am catching up. My dad would buy books and never get to them, though they sounded good at the time. I found them with markers part way through. I found some of them untouched. I learned a good rule back a while ago. When you buy a book it goes on your desk until you read it. The pile gets too big, then you don't buy more. I like books on tape, but buying them gets real expensive. I now have the books rolling in automatically on Leadership and Amazon and I are good friends. Used books are a cost saver often and I am very grateful for the used classics that are out there for the gleaning which are no longer sold new. John Wesley said to be a person of one book - The Bible. Though he would have placed the church rules Book of Discipline high on the list. He also published many books, hymns, pamphlets. No books from me. Though I do have a great idea for a compelling mystery set in the Thousand Islands. We all must juggle our reading time - fun things, work related and general news and magazines. So many books, so little time....
