THOUGHTS
Can I borrow your book, please?
In the age of more books becoming more and more available on e-readers, I seldom find myself buying hardcover books anymore, it’s so much easier and more convenient just to go into my kindle e-reader store and buy a book and cheaper too.
But I do have some books in my bookshelf at home that I admit are mainly just for added decor to the room. But today a friend of mine came over and when she looked at my books on my bookshelf she picked up one and read the back of it.
“Can I borrow this please?” I heard her say.
I had my back turned at the time as I was locking my front door but I turned to the sound of her voice and question to me.
She showed me the book she wanted to borrow. It was this one
My heart skipped a beat for a second when I saw what she wanted to borrow as part of me couldn’t imagine parting with it. This is the book I bought during my Hawaii trip in 2018 and I met the Author who to my surprise is Australian like me but now lives in Hawaii.
The author even inscribed it for me, so basically it’s not a book to me that I can just go buy again if it…
