Can only time tell?

I’ve been lusting for the next book of Mitch Albom. And here it is!

It’s in hard bound copy and I had to muster all my self-control to not buy the book because it’s not a wise buy. But I thought to myself, it’s a small price to pay for the satisfaction that I will get while reading it, (will I?) and the many, many times that I can read this book over and over and over again.

I must wait for the paperback version. And to do justice to the book, I will not read it via ebook.

The reason why I don’t like to read it in ebook is because I make my Mitch Albom books a coloring book. Highlight here, highlight there (as if it’s a textbook that I need to memorize the highlighted parts) scribble here, scribble there.

I think writing your thoughts in the book is the best way to enjoy it. It may not look decent, it may looked really old, torn, tattered, very used but I guess that’s the best way to use a book. A bright, good-as-new book is the one that’s never been read. And trust me, books don’t want to be treated that way.

I’ll wait to buy this book. Patience is a virtue.

Does it look old, or does it look new?

Or is it dusty?! Dust it off! 🙂
