The 'Lost In A Book' Tag
Sunday, April 24, 2016
Last month I wrote about loving books, losing myself in a world of literature and rediscovering my love for novels all over again. You can read that post here.
As a child I used to read any novel I could get my hands on, then as I got older I lost interest. Now my passion for reading novels again and now I'm happy to lose myself in a world of books once again!

E-reader or real book?
Real book of course! I'm so glad e-readers didn't exist when I was a child. I love the feel of a real book, and I couldn't bear to read from a screen.

I'm totally with you on real books! I adored reading as a child and I'm slowly getting back into it as an adult (high school killed my love for it) but I don't think I would have ever liked reading as much as a kid if I was doing it on an iPad or Kindle.

DeleteWe have every single point in common. What's your favorite genre? I also can't choose a favorite book. Hello? That's like choosing a child.
