I read widely from many genres. Perhaps this blog will feature fewer ratings and reviews, but I certainly intend to write about my reading life - it's the subject I most find myself wanting to talk about.

Team Reader: Baby Edition
— feeling excited 
A few days ago, one of my cousins posted a video of her infant rolling over for the first time. To protect their privacy, I won't repost it here, but believe me, it was A-Dorable.
But what really brought tears to my eyes was not the baby's physical feat, it was her mental effort: It was clear that WHY she was rolling over at that moment was to get her book - Eric Carle's "Very Hungry Caterpillar," in a cloth edition specifically designed for infants.
#TeamReader - we have recruited another one. I'm certain she'll be a life member.
