Books

I have gone to Barnes and Noble twice in the past two days. Walking around the store gives me a sense of peace and gladness. I sat and read for awhile. Just finished Jane Eyre (after a long intermission I returned to the book and was delighted with the second half)... I wish I could describe to you the thought and emotion evoked while reading it, but I know not where to begin. I hated characters and grew to love them. It takes a good writer to successfully make you both hate and love their characters. Brings a challenge... from one extreme to the other in the matter of ink written on pages. I'm going to read the Chronicles of Narnia again. Wanting to think like a child. Oh, and Mad OX (Kari Maddox if you will) is to arrive in half an hour. Can't wait!
