“Time spent reading, like time spent loving, increases our lifetime.” D. Pennac
My girlfriend hates me because the first thing I did for the move in our new house was put the books in boxes!!!
And I still don't have any bookshelves to put them on 😬😬
You can't make people read. Any more than you can make them love, or dream.

The rights of the reader, by Daniel Pennac and Quentin Blake.
1- The right not to read.
2- The right to skip.
3- The right not to finish a book.
4- The right to read it again.
5- The right to read anything.
6- The right to mistake a book for real life.
7- The right to read anywhere.
8- The right to dip in.
9- The right to read out loud.
10- The right to be quiet
... And 1 warning: don't make fun of people who never read, or they never will.
Parents, teachers, librarians, please on no account use these pages as an instrument of torture.
Our Airbnb had bookshelves so we decided to clear them and have a communal bookshelf share for all the ladies at our #24in48 retreat. We had show and tell for all the books we each brought 😄😍 too. This day has been crazy, but so ready for the readathon.

I have this book on my shelf, within reach, to remind myself of the sensible advices. It‘s fun and I love Quentin Blake‘s illustrations.

Thanks for hosting @TK-421. Looking forward to another month of great quotations!
It's not even Halloween and I'm thinking about next year's reading goals for myself. Well, more like reading habits I want to cultivate.
The first thing I want to do is to stop obsessing over my audible stats. I find myself thinking about that instead of listening. Or I have an audiobook going when I'm not concentrating on it. And audible loses my stats half the time anyway.
I was reminded of this by @Shadowfat
Imagine if all teachers adhered to these basic reading rights.
