What A Treat

I'm reading a book by Andy Weir (the fellow who wrote the Martian, that was turned into a movie, I really enjoyed both) right now.

It's another of his books that has been adapted into a movie (that is soon-ish to come out) and that I wanted to read before the movie came out and that I "treated" myself to (I really do try to use the library rather than spending money on books but sometimes all the books I want are on long waiting lists and I don't like the pressure of someone else waiting for me to finish QUICKLY so I'll let myself buy a book here and there).

I am enjoying it.  (Some of the science is a lot for my mushy-these-days brain but still....) And what that means for me is that I really look forward to going to bed.  (That's where I do my reading.)

Having a book that I look forward to reading is such a treat and makes the idea of going to bed a real pleasure.

So thank you to the authors who write the books that make me excited to read.  It's such a wonderful feeling to have and I love that I love to read.  (Thanks to my parents for that, and to local libraries!)
