Although I enjoy visiting, it doesn’t seem like I spend as much time talking as I do listening. But get me onto a favorite topic and I can talk your ears off (provided you don’t die of boredom because you don’t share my enthusiasm). So for today’s 30 Days of Lists, here are the subjects…
So. . . is there a difference between recommending books that I think everyone should read and my favorite books? I would say yes.
