Every shelf seems to offer another subject, another idea, another reason to keep reading

I always tell myself to keep it to one or two books. It never works. Every shelf seems to offer another subject, another idea, another reason to keep reading.

This time I came home with books about U.S. presidents, pilgrimage, communication, symbolism, happiness and a little more besides.

So once again, the bicycle basket is full.
