While leaving a popular bookstore recently with my children, my oldest son said, "One day these stores will be gone." I hope he is wrong.
There is nothing like the touch and feel of a good book that you carefully selected because it drew you in. The library is wonderful too of course. But for me, I like to own my books for a time, gift them later, or donate them.
Books sit on my tables around my house and in my office as a reminder of what I want to learn more about. What I am struggling with at the moment. Or even what issues my clients are navigating. Other times, it is what's calling my attention politically, emotionally, spiritually, and where I want to grow. Other times, they are just pleasure. Pure pleasure. I commit to sharing with you what is on my nightstand or coffee table with regularity.
What I'm Reading
