I feel lucky to be from a family of readers and to be a part of one now. I'm hoping my daughter will share in my love for books as she grows.Literary Felinehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13079276242303738719noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9086086005837113678.post-32258951964043520742016-02-27T20:49:26.141-06:002016-02-27T20:49:26.141-06:00Thanks for visiting Sherrie.

In a way I have a different kind of disconnect... I have some acquaintances who read but they are quite snobbish and don't like to discuss what I read because it is below them and some they consider inappropriate to write and to read.

It was touching and honest. I love the fact that your mother pushed for you to read. I wish my mother would have been involved in my reading as a child. She reads, a lot actually, but there's a huge disconnect between us. One that even a mutual love for reading can't bridge. <br /><br />Great job and I'm so happy to hear that you have so many people to share your love of reading with.<br /><br />Thanks for stopping by earlier.

You are SO blessed!! Oh, I can't help but envy you.... My hubby doesn't share my love of books and reading. He'll drop me off at Barnes & Noble, and then either wait in the parking lot, smoking a cigar and surfing the Net on his phone, or go over to a Sports Authority store nearby to look at sports equipment. Oh, well...<br /><br />My two sisters are not readers, either, but our Mom is. She doesn't read as much now as she used to, though.<br /><br />Thanks for sharing your great memories!! :)Maria Beharhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13635809880830316283noreply@blogger.com
