The month of September is 'Read a New Book' month - so now is the time to pick up that novel you have been eyeing off, or grab that DIY manual that you bought, and finish off that project, or even a technical manual to help you get the most out of that new gadget you bought.
When you crack open the pages of a book, you find yourself caught up in a new world of events and characters - or just a world of information. The best books - yes, even instructional manuals, lead you through a storyscape that builds and shares with you the vision of the author, no matter if it is a world in a galaxy far, far away, or how to build your own 'whatever'. (And we all need new 'whatevers'!)
Read a Book month is there to encourage you to read as many books as you can in your life - which translates to living MANY lives, learning new things and opening your mind up to new ideas and philosopies.
How to celebrate?? Read, read and READ! Read new books, try new authors, investigate new genres, learn new things and new ideas.
As George R.R. Martin said in 'A Dance with Dragons' - "A reader lives a thousand lives before he dies. The man who doesn't read lives only one"
