Tessa DareThe love of books was an instant connection, and a true boon for a girl who tended toward shyness, because it was a source of endless conversation.
About This Quote
I love reading, and I love meeting new people. Reading opens your mind to new places and experiences, while having conversations with people who share the same interests can make for some great conversations. Overall, it is an amazing thing to be able to sit down with someone and talk about a book that they like or a movie that they like or a TV show that they like. It makes you feel like you know them and they know you because we can talk about something we both enjoy.
