I absolutely
love books. I love reading them, but I love to just have them on my shelf. I've always said that books make a house look like a home, and I just think that there's something really special about them, and old books especially are just so so beautiful! I hope you agree because I often feel, when I have a lovely book in my hands, that I want to show it to, and share it with other people. Which is what I'm going to do now...
(While I was at home last weekend I hung out a bit in my Dad's office at church. It's one of my favourite things to do when I'm at home, and as I get older I appreciate more and more all the incredible books he has! And today I went on a little day trip down to Warrington to a second hand Christian bookshop run by
Book Aid which was just lovely, and invested in a few items!)
