Another one of thoses 'I got to read a book today' posts

I really like books. I like reading books that people recommend to me. I like reading books that I randomly pick off shelves at the library. But most of all I like reading the books that I've already read. Multiple times. I started reading The Sky-liners last night while I was getting Brita to sleep. I've probably read it thirty times. But it was really good, so I didn't stop reading it until eleven thirty when I finished it.

That made me want to read Flint today. But I couldn't find it, so I read The Blue Castle instead. I love that book. That one I've probably read fifty times.

I always forget how much I like the books until I read them again. Like Horse Thieves. And The Miracle of Miss Willie. And Venetia and Ride the River and Sylvester or the Wicked Uncle and Jubal Sackett (Shawn paid me a dollar to read that one the first time so that I would stop making fun of him for reading westerns.). I really love my books.

I read Monica's copy of The Sky-liners so often that she gave me her copy. I love my family. And the books they give me.

I guess I should get me a copy - I don't remember it at all!
