Produktbeschreibung

From the author's introduction:

The books have always been there. They have added nuance, depth, and richness to my life. When I speak of reading I am not talking about an expediency but a glorious adventure. The reading to which I refer is like a drug rush, a phenomenon. Reading is a much more vital experience than watching films or playing video games. The author's words ignite your psyche and create a multidimensional, multisensory experience which can be totally fulfilling, totally absorbing.

Because I cannot imagine a life without books, book reviews are an essential part of radiating who and what I am. Reading is a voyage of discovery. And though a true reader wants the freedom to discover new worlds without restriction, a map with a few landmarks is a useful tool to save time. All I can do is point out what paths I have followed and what those paths mean to me. Reviews are one way of fine-tuning your discernment, to ensure that your reading experience is time well spent. We are each of us microcosms in the great vastness of the larger universe, and reading is one way we have of closing the gap.
