The Adventures of Katnip: 25
“Have you ever heard of Mount Toberead?” John Riley asked.
“I don’t think so. Where is it?”
“It’s a place where all you have to do is open a cover, and you’ll be welcomed into more wondrous adventures than you could ever imagine.”
“In the old days, there was a place like that in Panem,” I said. “It was called ‘Library.'”
Currently Mount Toberead happens to be my Kindle. With my allergies showing up in recent weeks, eye irritation has cut back on reading time.
That is my TBR pile of physical books. I did download something like 100 classics for an insanely low price, but I’m not even sure what all they are, so I can’t list them. I don’t feel any compulsion to read them; I know they’re there for those times that I take my Nook along with me somewhere and I finish whatever is its current read. That Nook has really been a wonderful idea, because I just don’t have bookshelf room for all the books I want to read.
I’m still not finished with the first volume of Proust, and I’m about halfway through Cunningham’s Specimen Days, but have been for years! In this batch, I actually finished Bob the Book today, and full disclosure, finished The Heart’s History yesterday. I wanted to give it a little visual plug.
I do like Trebor Healey’s work.
As do I.
