Reading has always been my sanctuary. My heaven away from heaven.
It's that feel of rough pages between your fingers that instantly calms every tiny atom in you. Every page filled with thousands and thousands of words to pleasure skim through. Like watching a beautiful waterfall in the midst of a rainforest.
Just for a little bit you can disappear off into happy endings and true love.
I remember I had a window chair back in Toronto that looked out over the city. I would get piles of reads from the local library and a huge bag of Lays ketchup, and spend hours and hours there. If the weather was colder, a mug of home-made hot chocolate was essential.
Needless to say I gained a lot of weight that way.
But just for those few hours, I would disappear into a new world, with new people, letting the emotional words coarse through me at every cliff hanger.
After getting married, my books stayed with me loyally. Always there to support me through stressful times. I always kept a new read on my table, right at the corner. Ready to be grabbed whenever needed.
There is comfort in knowing that a whole new world of dreams is right beside you. You can change reality whenever you want.
My current book is 'Spell bound'.
This is my pleasure read.
I was never really into magic and spirits, but The Harry Potter series changed my mind on that.
I also read non-fictions, autobiographies, romance and religious books. All depends on my current mood.
Pleasure reads are for when I need time-off at the end of the day. Usually at bed time.
I would love to know what books are you reading right now. Always open for suggestions and reviews.
So far 'Spell Bound' has quite been entertaining. It's about a witch with big emotional problems, looking to hunt down troublemakers. A bit of family drama here and there.
I could totally relate with her on the 'emotional problems' part.
