This week, I’ve written a guest blog post over on The Reading Palette. Amisha Goel, who runs the beautiful site, challenged me to write something about a book or a piece of literature that was special to me.
I sat down and thought about it – not for very long, mind you – because luckily, late last year I came across one of the best things I’ve ever had the pleasure of reading: Tuesdays With Morrie, by Mitch Albom.
That’s when it hit me: how had I not read this before? Where had this book been all my life?
I have this idea in my head that I read a lot, and that I’ve always read a lot. Sure, that’s probably true both now and way back when, but I slowly realized that I probably never read very widely. When I was young I read cartoons, and a handful of book series, but I didn’t spend much time seeking new things. This wasn’t helped by becoming a teenager who spent most of his free time playing video games, or a young adult who went to university and slowly lost his time and patience for fiction (honestly, reading course material killed my joy of reading for a few years).
So when I came across Tuesdays With Morrie, I knew I had been missing out, and when The Reading Palette challenged me to write my blog piece, I didn’t hesitate. I needed to put down into words how important I felt the book was, and how it ignited something in me.
So please, go check out my guest blog over at The Reading Palette:
Rediscovering Literature: Why Tuesdays with Morrie became my Must-Read.
