Is it just me or did you deliberately use the number “394″ as a reference to Snape? :)

I have a problem with taking my book with me everywhere even if there is no way I’ll get reading done. 3 am trip to the grocery store? Bring the book along! 2 minute trip to pick up pizza? Bring the book along! I think I just feel better having it with me.

Friend on facebook: I'm reading a new book!
Me: Whatever idiot, you probably haven't read an actual book in your whole life.
Friend on tumblr: I'm reading a new book!
Me: OMG! What is it? who is it by? is it any good? should I read it?!

"When I read a book, I put in all the imagination I can, so that it is almost like writing the book as well as reading it–or rather, it is like living it. It makes reading so much more exciting, but I don’t suppose many people try to do it."

"Do you know the feeling when you start reading a new book before the membrane of the last one has had time to close behind you? You leave the previous book with ideas and themes - characters even - caught in the fibres of your clothes, and when you open the new book they are still with you."

— “The Thirteenth Tale” by Diane Setterfield (via booksturnmugglesintowizards)

the problem with reading a good book is that you want to finish the book but you don’t want to finish the book

01/? Daddy Long Legs by Jean Webster (1912)

“It isn’t the great big pleasures that count the most; it’s making a great deal out of the little ones–I’ve discovered the true secret of happiness, Daddy, and that is to live in the now. Not to be for ever regretting the past, or anticipating the future; but to get the most that you can out of this very instant.”
