Reading List
A truly good book teaches me better than to read it. I must soon lay it down, and commence living on its hint. What I began by reading, I must finish by acting. - Henry David Thoreau
I adore books and am in love with reading. My favorite book of all time? The Catcher in the Rye by J.D. Salinger. Holden Caulfield … what a nut!
