SynopsisNATIONAL BESTSELLER .Anna Quindlen presents a "swift and compelling paean to the joys of books" ( Booklist ). "Like the columns she used to write for the New York Times, How Reading Changed My Life is tart, smart, full of quirky insights, lapidary, and a pleasure to read."- Publishers Weekly "Reading has always been my home, my sustenance, my great invincible companion. . . . Yet of all the many things in which we recognize universal comfort-God, sex, food, family, friends-reading seems to be the one in which the comfort is most undersung, at least publicly, although it was really all I thought of, or felt, when I was eating up book after book, running away from home while sitting in a chair, traveling around the world and yet never leaving the room. . . . I read because I loved it more than any activity on earth."-from How Reading Changed My Life, Reading lists of some of the author's favorite books accompany her thoughts on the role of books and reading in her life., NATIONAL BESTSELLER - Anna Quindlen presents a "swift and compelling paean to the joys of books" ( Booklist ).
