And when I pick up a book to read, its typically because I need something to stimulate my mind, or distract me from my mundane job or to make me laugh or whatever my mind needs at that moment. Gotta love The Paris Review!<br /><br />By the by, I love that pic! It looks gorgeous outside - perfect for laying about and reading!Nadiahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14315207186180201488noreply@blogger.com
