October called: it’s time to romanticize your reading list.

The thing that I love the most in this life is books. Since forever, I cannot explain the feeling that I get whenever I pass a bookstore on the street. I don’t know what my calling is with books; I’m still trying to figure that part out, but I love them. I sometimes even find that they speak to me and find me. No matter where I go, I’ll always look for a good store to check out.

And you know what’s the crazy part of all of these? Is that I was never really into reading growing up, yet I still felt that connection with them. 

Now that I’m thinking about it, the best part about books is that they are a source of knowledge. It doesn’t matter what genre you’re reading: every book always has something to teach you, and that’s endless. You can read as many books in your lifetime, and you will always learn something new from them. It’s an immense power, and I feel proud to be a bookworm. 

Besides reading at night, I love reading on those cold and crisp days, when I don’t leave the house all weekend, and I stay inside devouring book after book. Since there’s nothing really to do outside, I prefer to stay in and to deeply enjoy them. There’s no rush, there’s nowhere I need to get, so I’ll spend as much time as possible understanding the story and how it speaks to me.

If you have never read in your life but you feel like it’s something you would like to pick up, then start by getting a small book. Something fun, easy to read. A book that you know you might be able to connect and read it completly. I can assure you that after completing one book, the bookworm vibe is going to get inside you, and you will never be the same person again. That’s for sure. Once a book makes a change in you, then there’s no going back. But for now, enjoy these book memes.
