This post is not about a book I have read. It is about a feeling. I hope you comment my fellow followers!
Do you know that feeling when you finish a book?
When you turn that last page and close it?
Normal people and people who hate or barely like to read ( you know who you are ) would not even begin to understand what I feel.
I am what you could call a complete and total bookworm. I even get my book taken away from me because I read too much and will not do anything else. But, I cannot help myself. All I want to do is read. When I find a good book on that keeps me on the edge of my seat it is like, heaven in paper form. All I want to do is turn the page. And when I feel like crying or I am sick......I read. I find it helpful to get myself lost in other peoples problems it takes my mind of things. It is my great escape.
Ever since I was little I have loved to read. I guess it is because my mom is a first grade teacher and when I was in her womb, she was teaching her class and reading to them. I am also smart, I guess you could say. I have been reading chapter books since I was in second grade. I am a fast reader too! I can finish a 200 page book in 2 hours.
But none of that even matters. What matters is closing that book. Finishing it. Reading the last sentence on the last page. I cannot even express in words how I feel. All I know is my heart starts to slow down, I feel like I am glowing and I get this undeniable sense of contentment. I feel so happy. The world around me does not matter. I feel like everything will be alright. Because hey, something good happened for this person why can't it happen for me.
I guess reading all the books I do, fill me with hope, hope that something nearly perfect exists. But do I care, no. I mostly read romances or teen girlish books. I love reading that type of story where a girl likes a boy and they end up together in the end.
This leaves me with hope that someone is out there, that is perfect for me. These books may give me false hope, maybe someone perfect is not out there, or even if he is maybe he is not looking for me..........
But for now I guess all I have is my hopes, dreams, and those great book ending that are too good.............for even the best words.....................................
