My appetite for books
The Curt Jester commented on my book meme:
I hope Fr Provincial agrees!The responses to the meme have been interesting. I read one by an aspiring
Dominican which has the most quintessentially Dominican answer that I have seen
thus far.
If books on three contintents isn't enough to get you into the Dominican
order I don't know what is. As a caveat of course book reading should only be a
foundation to preaching as is proper for their charism.
But what made me laugh was a comment posted at that blog by someone called Lucy:
Yikes!!! This guy has the digestive abilities of an Anaconda. Way too much timeI actually don't think I read as much as I ought to... but perhaps my anaconda-like appetite for books may account for my stomach size - I eat them!
on his hands. Did he say when he started reading. What age 2 or 3?

Me too! Though I prefer to say I "devour" them ... so much more descriptive! ha! :-0
Well... I do love flipping through cook books and devouring the pictures with my eyes... but that makes me hungry too!
