The reasons why Books stay with me vary. Sometimes I lack the experience to read them yet but will one day (And Have!). Other times they are a memory of the times they shared with me. Not to forget that some books I read and reread them because they let me enter into a world I enjoy or make me think of what could be.

The reason they come into my world is as varied. I pick up a book that leads me down one line and then buy books that remain on the to be read pile when in the meanwhile another book has sent me off into an other line. They then wait until I come back into their direction months and years later?

If I had to sum up my library, all the books are windows into worlds that enable me to enjoy or understand this one more!
