Confessions of a Book Lover
Confessions of a Book Lover | Ruskin Bond
17 posts | 4 to read
Exploring bookshelves in some of the most amazing places-Simla's Ripon Hospital, Hampstead General Hospital in London, and The Select Bookshop of Mr Rao and Ms Murthy in Bangalore among others-Ruskin Bond opens a window to his earliest encounters with incredible writers and their wonderful writings to introduce you to the stories that played a significant role in moulding his imagination as a full-time writer. Confessions of a Book Lover is a journey into Ruskin's life through the books he has loved and an introduction to some forgotten classics.

So this is also me. Maybe a little too much 🙃 I fall down rabbit holes related to books I‘m reading/want to read all.the.time. My IG bio describes me as a “Serial Book Clubber” And while it isn‘t entirely a bad thing, it does take time away from, you know, actually reading books. Hence a grand total of only 78 books in 2017. For ‘18, I want to limit my rabbit hole diving just a bit. What‘s you Reading Personality? https://www.bookbrowse.com/quiz/

I can‘t resist a personality quiz, especially one that is book/reader related. This one nailed me pretty well, although I also fit squarely into the Involved Reader category. In fact, one of my 2018 reader goals is to spend less time reading about and seeking books and just sitting down and actually reading more of them! What is your Reader Personality? https://www.bookbrowse.com/quiz/ Thanks @Mitch and @Alwaysbeenaloverofbooks for sharing.

Saw this at a bookstore recently. Hope to read it soon. Ruskin Bond's a favourite after all.
