Read this, Not that

Here there be books. book reviews, pictures of books, articles about books and authors, movies based on books, reading, literature, book worms, contemporary fiction and the occasional bout of silliness.

“Books are the perfect entertainment: no commercials, no batteries, hours of enjoyment for each dollar spent. What I wonder is why everybody doesn’t carry a book around for those inevitable dead spots in life.”
— Stephen King

WISHBONE WAS SO LEGIT.

you know it

I learned so much from this motherfucking dog

there are so many books I’ve never read but know the plot to thanks to this dog.

wishbone is literally how i have any knowledge of the ‘classics’

and he’s my hero

This makes me want to dress my doggie up in many outfits, but I’m a good mommy, so I won’t.

I will never stop loving Wishbone.
