Hello again

Have you found any new good places to read yet?  Reading doesn't just have to be something that's kept for special occasions, like holidays and weekends; it can be something that you can do anywhere and everywhere. 

We tend not to notice but we are surrounded by people who are reading, all day everyday.  We just get so used to it that we no longer really see them.  So, out of idle curiosity, I spent a day actively looking out for people reading as I went about my daily business (and before you all say it, this wasn't in the library!)  Anyway, there were people reading on the bus and at the station whilst waiting for trains.  I saw a lady reading in a car at the traffic lights (note that she was the passenger, not the driver).  I even saw a homeless girl sat on the pavement reading a book.  People were reading in cafes and bookshops, in fact they were reading everywhere I looked.

Try it for yourself and see how many different places you can spot people reading - it might surprise you!

Until next time...
