When I was a kid, I used to haunt the libraries here in town like it was my job. I still remember the smell of the books in our local libraries and the excitement when I'd find a book I'd never read before. As I got older, I got into owning my own books. I took a small little sense of pride in knowing that these books were all a part of my history and education.
