Argh! I just went on Amazon to cancel an order of books - which really REALLY SUCKS! A girl can never have enough books and the fcat that I had to cancel an order of books really hurts!
I know it doesnt seem like a big deal to many people out there but to me it is. Books are the breathe of life to me - I read everyday atleast for a couple of hours - I cannot imagine NOT reading everyday. I cannot survive without books and reading.
Books are a world apart; they offer so much. Alternative worlds, alternative experiences, alternative characters and personalities, knowledge and wit... its all there.
When I see books I like I WANT them, I could say I need them but that may make me sound just a tad obsessive! But seriously, books are essential to me.
I have a WishList of something like 400 books I wanna buy on Amazon and the list seems to go grow and never shrink! There are so many books I want to read that I wish I had enough money and enough time to read them all.
Does this make me sound mad? I hope not because I think what I am saying is perfectly reasonable and I'm sure many other people feel this way - just not many that I know!
Anyway, my point is - I want to go on a shopping spree on Amazon and buy all the books my heart desires and then some. I wanna do this so much it is literally an ache in my heart.... sad isnt it?! But I wish, I wish, I wishhhhh...............
Argh! I want books!
