Arthur and a DeLorean
As part of BBC America’s Rate My Ride contest for Top Gear, somebody submitted a photo of his DeLorean… with Arthur Darvill.
What is happening. I have too many feelings.
Books, to the reading child, are so much more than books — they are dreams and knowledge, they are a future and a past.

Reading is everything. Reading makes me feel like I’ve accomplished something, learned something, become a better person. Reading makes me smarter. Reading gives me something to talk about later on. Reading is the unbelievably healthy way my attention deficit disorder medicates itself. Reading is escape, and the opposite of escape; it’s a way to make contact with reality after a day of making things up, and it’s a way of making contact with someone else’s imagination after a day that’s all too real. Reading is grist. Reading is bliss.

Introverts, in contrast, may have strong social skills and enjoy parties and business meetings, but after a while wish they were home in their pajamas. They prefer to devote their social energies to close friends, colleagues, and family. They listen more than they talk, think before they speak, and often feel as if they express themselves better in writing than in conversation. They tend to dislike conflict. Many have a horror of small talk, but enjoy deep discussions.

As awesome as he is in the movies, he’s so much MORE freaking fabulous in the books.

It is a good rule after reading a new book, never to allow yourself another new one till you have read an old one in between.
