WHISPERS

Old Books . . . Old Friends

For lots of reasons, I find myself reading most books these days by ereader, yet still I adore old books and stores which feature them!  I love the sight, smell and feel of them, but there is something more!  I hear the voices of each soul who held, read, and loved the book before me.  Old books, old friends!

The tattered pages

Speak of those who’ve gone before

Can you hear the whispers?

    I still read all my books the tangible way – paper, binding, etc. : ) No e-reader. I love books – whether new or old! : ) Yes, old friends.

    I do use my Kindle, but holding a book in one’s hands just can’t be beat. Praying for you, Martha!
