Thanks @Eggs for the #WondrousWednesday tag! 🤗

I‘ve always loved this 📚quote:

“She read books as one would breathe air, to fill up and live. She read books as one would breathe ether, to sink in and die.” -Annie Dillard, The Living

Eggs Beautiful quote👏🏻👏🏻 6mo

Daisey I‘ve seen the first part of this quote many times, but I don‘t know that I‘ve ever seen the second part. Great choice! (edited) 6mo

Alwaysbeenaloverofbooks This is my favorite also 🩷 6mo

Misty, i was able to collect your sweet card today. Thank you. 🥰 Currently, i am reading My Antonia by Cather, and loving every bit of it. She is my new favourite author. What are you reading?

@Alwaysbeenaloverofbooks

Alwaysbeenaloverofbooks Wow!! What is the date on the card? It seems like it took forever 🤣 I‘m glad it made it!! I‘m reading Killers of the Flower Moon for our #BotmBuddyRead 📚💗 5y

Tanisha_A @Alwaysbeenaloverofbooks It reached here in August, but i was out of town for work and couldn't collect it until now. 🤦‍♀️ Ah! Nice! That's on my TBR. Will look for your review once you finish reading it. ☺️ 5y

“People seemed so joyous tonight, yet it was the same world it ever was, and they all had forgotten. When a baby is born it‘s fuse lights. The ticking begins, and the fire starts fizzing down its length.”
