To read or not to read or EDIM: DOCE



We get no good
By being ungenerous, even to a book,
And calculating profits,
-- so much help
By so much reading. it is rather when
We gloriously forget ourselves and plunge
Soul-forward, headlong, into a book's profound,
Impassioned for its beauty and salt of truth --
'T is then we get the right good from a book.
-Elizabeth Barrett Browning



I have thoroughly been enjoying Jodi Picoult's, My Sister's Keeper. It's a story so real and yet so unbelievable. I am completely immersed in each character. Picoult unfolds her story brilliantly and I hope the movie coming out in July does the book justice.
