So Many Books, So Little Time: A Year of Passionate Reading

A book about a person who loves books seemed like it would be right up my alley. However, I don't think Sara Nelson and I approach books the same way. The books was broken up in essays related to whatever book she was reading at the time and what it taught her about her reading life. Some of those were interesting. But I didn't really relate to as many of her reading experiences as I would have thought. I guess the conclusion there is every reader is different and there are many ways to love to read.

A book which makes you want to spend every single hour of every single day reading books. Plenty of great recommendations in here too.

I was apprehensive about finally reading this book, to tell you the truth....I'd saved
it for several months and kept picking it up and admiring its cutesy title, its cartoonish cover, and its clever book concept
(try to read a book a week for a year and then write about the experience)....Could the book possibly live up to the
expectations I'd generated for it?

Surprisingly, yes. This book feels like it was custom cut for us, the book-obsessed in the world, with chapters on the
appeal of first lines in novels, husbands who don't read, double-booking....You almost wonder—Is Nelson here,
secretly, among us in our online book groups, silently listening to and writing down our book passions, our book concerns?

She is definitely one of us, in spirit. I heartily recommend this book.
