Well its safe to say I love reading. I like the way i can read a book and be completely transported into another world. I can become the main character of the story or feel like I am watching from above.
There is nothing better than the feel of the pages underneath your fingertips.Curling up withe a blanket a cup of tea and a book. Being able to see how far you have read and when you are getting close to the end that feeling that you just don't want it to be over. People keep telling me that an e-reader is amazing but i truly don't think anything could beat the feeling of holding a book in your hands and turning a page.
So three times a year there is a local book fair to raise money for the Lifeline charity where people have donated their second hand books and you then purchase them and all the money goes back to the charity. My mother and I try to go at least twice a year and as it was the fair was on last weekend and I think we went a little bit overboard.
My mother and I went on the morning of the first day of the fair and 2hrs later I walked out with 17 books. I know for most people quite a big number but for me this seemed pretty normal as I tend to read quite fast. But then my sister then decided that she would like to go on the last day of the fair, which is half price day, and this is when things went wrong by the end of the day we had counted up our books and between the three of us we had bought 143 books, 41 of which were mine. Oops!
I must say I have already finished one of the books in 2 days so hopefully it doesn't take me too long to get through them all.
