Day 203


Day two hundred three
May 23, 2013: Re-reading books is kind of a bitter sweet thing. Recently I have been reading through some of my favorites from being a little kid, and it's almost like I'm reading a new book. Not because I have forgotten so much of it, but because my reaction to the book is so different. It's one of those things that show me how much I've changed. Books that I have been re-reading every couple years for a long time are different. It's like they've "grown up" with me and I have trouble comparing to how a felt when I read them the first time to how I feel now since I have read them so many times. But book, where it has been five or more years since I've read them, I can really tell how different they appear to me. Books are funny like that.
