This is the time of the year when my tweets tend to shift from museums and miscellaneous to literary (and miscellaneous) as the Frankfurt Book Fair is one of THE literary events that most of my literary friends are either going to or part of. Publishers, authors, agents all seem to flog to Germany for this International event. At the same time, there are a lot of literary festivals this time of the year (such as the brilliant Cheltenham Festivals which those who can’t get to Germany prefer to attend.
I love books. I love reading, I love going to libraries and book stores and searching new books I didn’t know existed. I love the feeling of leaping into a book – becoming a bystander in the scenes that I’m reading. Charlotte and I are fortunate to sometimes receive books from publishers to review which has spurred her love of reading even further. And recently, I even received an acknowledgement in L.A. Weatherly sequel Angel Fire. [Thank you!]
