One day there may be a reason to keep going in the rain, but until then, go inside, get warm, and pull a book out of your pocket while you wait for sun to shine. Book Riot (http://bookriot.com/) just published a short piece in defense of owning lots of books that you haven't read yet.

I couldn't agree more ... life is to short to read to the end of a book because you, or someone else thinks you should. I guess it's akin to cutting short a walk when it starts to rain, why keep going and get drenched. Annie Cholewahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17608057589525908147noreply@blogger.com
