Mary Ann Shaffer Quotes About Reading

Quotes about: Reading

• That's what I love about reading: one tiny thing will interest you in a book, and that tiny thing will lead you to another book, and another bit there will lead you onto a third book. It's geometrically progressive - all with no end in sight, and for no other reason than sheer enjoyment.

So, it has to be a love of readers and reading that makes them do it-- along with first dibs on the new books.
