Gail Carson LevineThere's nothing wrong with reading a book you love over and over. When you do, the words get inside you, become a part of you, in a way that words in a book you've read only once can't.
About This Quote
For many of us, books are more than just another form of entertainment. They’re a portal to another place and time, an escape from the mundane, an invitation to experience something new. With books, we can travel back in time or venture into the future. We can visit with old friends or meet new ones. And, if all that is too much, we can curl up on the couch with a good book for hours on end, losing ourselves in the written word.
