I'd Rather Be Reading (Book Review)

This one is for my fellow book lovers. In this short, witty, ridiculously relatable book, Bogel puts into words what we've been feeling for ages. At every chapter, I found myself laughing, smiling, or sighing with relief: "You too! Oh thank god! I thought I was the only one!" From how you organize your library, to your book twin (hey boo thang!), to wandering aimlessly through a bookstore because you can feel a book calling you but you just haven't found it yet, Bogel eloquently and clearly articulates what it means to be a reader and how important that part of identity is to us. "I'd Rather Be Reading" is about the whole reason we read in the first place: to know we're not alone. And my fellow book lovers, Anne Bogel assures us that we certainly not alone in our love affair with literature.
