genre: non-fiction
This book is exactly what it professes to be in the title. It's a cozy love letter to books and reading, 53 short vignettes about a way that books can be a part of your life. As a fellow avid reader, I can't say I learned anything here that I haven't already done/am doing/have thought of, but it genuinely is just a nice way to think about my favorite hobby for a while. I also loved that she speaks a different native language than me and so has grown up with a whole different canon of literature - along with many titles I am familiar with. Most of all, this just reminded me with how happy I am that books are where my heart landed when I was a little girl myself and that they still give me as much pleasure now as they did then.
