Do you have a rule that you don't lend your books to all the people in a row... and when you finally do, are you nervous?
Each of us has a hobby, a passion, something that we particularly enjoy. But one of these passions is very special, and this is it love of books. These are 15 things that true book lovers have experienced at least once in their lives.
1. At least once it happened to you that you were not ready to read a new book because you were still emotionally attached to the previous one.
2. At the beginning of the year, you set a goal for how much you would read and exceeded it.
3. You spent more than an hour in the library browsing the bookshelves.
4. You took more than two books on a short trip.
5. You have a habit of smelling books and enjoy this smell to the extreme.
6. You were very disappointed after the movie adaptation of one of the books, so now you avoid such movies.
7. You dream of having your own library in your apartment / house.
8. You read a book late into the night, even though you know you will have to get up early.
9. On the train or bus, you "fell into the book" so much that you missed your stop.
10. You were disappointed with the ending of the book and had to complain to someone and read all the comments on the forums to see if others were as disappointed.
11. When you are asked what your favorite book is, it takes a long time to answer.
12. You cried at least once at the death of a favorite character.
13. You were completely enthralled by the book, and you read the last chapters several times - all just so that the book wouldn't end.
14. You almost had a nervous breakdown where the restoration of the book or its brief description was not a true representation of its content.
15. You are nervous about lending your book to others, and you also have a rule that you don't lend books to just anyone.
Books with which you will easily acquire reading habits
The bookworm club is not a closed organization. Anyone can join and enjoy free membership benefits. Among other things, regular reading of literature is connected with increased emotional stability, general awareness, better expression and better abilities to regulate interpersonal relationships. But reading, more than anything else, is a skill that needs to be learned. If you want to increase your pile of books you've read, read about the books that will help you get into the habit of reading easily.
Harry Potter series (JK Rowling)
We know, Harry Potter can turn out to be a slightly chewed-up idea for casual reading. However, if you haven't picked up the fifth best-selling book of all time, we recommend you take the time to go to Hogwarts with Harry, Hermione and Ron. You won't regret it.
A Series of Unfortunate Events (Lemony Snicket)
The Series of Unfortunate Events spans as many as 13 books, providing a pleasantly thick pile of excellent reading. Snicket will take you on a slightly scary but at the same time optimistic adventure of Baudelaire's orphans.
Fahrenheit 451 (Ray Bradbury)
This book requires a slightly more collected reader, but is later rewarded with a suspenseful story full of life lessons.
Charlie's World (Stephen Chbosky)
The American bestseller about growing up was also published in a Slovenian translation after a few years' delay. Charlie's world is full of dating, drugs, family drama and The Rocky Horror Picture Show.
The Girl on the Train (Paula Hawkins)
If you have not yet discovered the outcome of this suspenseful crime by watching the film, we strongly recommend that you get to know the story through the book. Once you pick up the book The Girl on the Train, you won't be able to put it down.
