I don't know which I love more; the crispness of a new book or the familiarity of an old one. Both indulgences make my heart beat faster and give me something to look forward to no matter what grievances I face during the day. An amazing book clouds your thoughts even when you aren't reading it. Each time you think about it, you feel an intense longing to lay in your bed or your favorite chair and read till your heart is content. Sadly, becoming immersed in a memorable story is a joy that to few know. Being "a reader" is something I'm proud of. I read for the pure joy of entering someone else's imagination and riding along till the end. Whether it's a new and twisted story or one that's been in my life for years, reading is a part of me, a permanent fixture in my life, my every breath.
