Of late I have started reading books again. Not that I had really stopped, but the pace had become so slow, that well....you could call it a dormant state. However, since my online interests have suddenly gone down significantly, I have picked up my pace, and done myself proud.
I completed 5 books in the past 4 days, and that is something. Now on to my latest...its called Magic City, by a black woman writer called Jewell Parker Rhodes and so far, it's been enchanting, to say the least. Somehow, reading books about white men and women, and watching movies that deal with only white men and women alienates us from having a real perspective of things. This book sort of shook me back to reality. Just the difference in style was all it took.
And suddenly the world is a bigger place than it had seemed a few days back.
Reading is sexy!

And that just about sums it up. So amen.
Up with second hand-bookshops. Yellow-paged-musty-smelling books for President.
