So Many Books, So Little Time: A Year of Passionate Reading by Sara Nelson
4.0
My mom got this book for me, probably guessing that I would quickly connect with any book about “a year of passionate reading” or the idea that there are always too many books to read. She was right!
This book is very cute and very relatable for a voracious reader like me. I have pulled three good quotes from it and I hope that they encourage you to give this book a try. I can’t honestly say that I connected with or enjoyed all of the chapters, but I still appreciated the book overall.
“That’s the other thing about a good novel: depending on your state of mind, and even the state of the world, you can probably find at least one of any number of themes to provide you the sense of connection you crave.”
“It reminded me yet again that what’s in a book is only part of what matters; in the right circumstances and with the right history, just about any book can take you where you need to go, even if you could never have found that place on a map.”
“Hell hath no fury like an expectant reader scorned.”
