If you can't tell, reading is quite the hobby of mine. I read a lot, whenever I can, really (which is not enough, in my opinion). But a part of me feels like it is a bit of a selfish hobby.
I read to learn, I read for pleasure, but all of it is for me. I often tell people what I learn about, or recommend they read something I have read, but it's not quite enough.
So I have an idea (which was planted by something I read...) to take it to the next level.
When I read something that I enjoy, I am going to give a copy of it to someone who I think would also enjoy it (friends, family, acquaintances, ex-lovers, etc.). It will be theirs to keep, a gift, if you will.
However, because I operate on a tight budget, it will have to be limited to a monthly activity (assuming I read more than one book a month).
As I am soon leaving, this plan will mostly have to commence upon my return.
I am very excited to begin.
Don't you wish we were friends? ;)
