I have been reading books for 8 years but on average I have just read about 7 books a year. I love reading books but I do get distracted a lot and there are other variables that affect my reading and that is the reason why I mostly take a month or more to read a book.
In the process of reading books, I discovered a few books that were something else. Call them extraordinary, powerful, amazing, mesmerizing, or anything that shows how much we like a certain book. But the thing is that I am surprised that even when I have read just a few books, I already have come across several of them. Note that I will only write the name of the books if they truly affected me or are close to my heart. The current number of books might be small for you but they are a lot for me.
I know that until I live, I will read a plethora of books, and once in a while, I wish to come across these kinds of books that you will never want to finish. You will want more because they will create a void in your heart that you or I will not be able to fill.
