About This Quote
When you go to someone’s house, it is usually full of trinkets and toys. But when you go to the home of a true book lover, you will find books all over their house. You can find books in their bathrooms, on their coffee tables, even in the closet. Books are like treasures to them.
People who love books are always looking for something new to read. They never want to run out of good books to read. They may even buy used books in hopes they’ll be able to get something that they can enjoy reading.
