My book that made me love reading wasn’t a fancy classic but one my grandmother had recommended me when I was about 15-16 years old. She used to work in a library and checked out books every week and read everyday of her retired life. She had such a joy for reading and wanted to share it with me. She recommend “The Nanny Diaries” I loved it, I couldn’t put it down. I have been reading ever since. This was looong before the movie ever came out.
I love the way you interpreted the question, I had a very different one to you.
My first thought was, I don't want a book to explain anything to me, I don't want to be told what to think. I want a book to make me ask a question and for me to come up with my own explanation.
But I love the concept of cutting up and glueing books together to create your own perfect book, it feels pretty cute to me and I feel like if everyone did that, we would all end up with something different.
And I do agree, I would love to know what happened before the big bang. Too bad we can't time travel yet...
Even my adventurous spirit has limits...I would't time travel THERE...with or without GOD's involvement, I bet, it would have been a very scary scene... :-)
Answering the question, I think every ideal book I meet, the “5 out of 5 stars” one, explains me the inner world of a person, real or imagined. And I am happily lost in it, closing the book breathless. It’s one of the reading’s joys — the fullness of compassion with someone ❤️🔥

Thanks for sharing. I have seen the film, but never known that it is based on a book. I will check it out. Enjoy the Sunday :-)

I love that you use the "meet" about a book...the right book always feels like meeting a friend.
