Welcome to the Peerless Page-turner blog! For my first post I will be discussing the quote I chose for the top of my blog.
The quote I chose was: "A room without books is like a body without a soul" said by Marcus Tullius Cicero (Link!)
I chose this quote because in my life, family and house, books seem to be around every corner. There is not a room in my house (other than perhaps my bathroom) where books don't exist in abundance. I have stacks of books on my dresser, as does my brother and mother. They seem to give each room a personality; rooms filled with young adult fiction have a modern, bubbly feel, while rooms filled with old books feel like an ancient beast, wise and powerful. Books can fill normally dull and lifeless rooms with energy, they can make these blank places feel truly alive.
And so that is why I chose this quote, because books are like sugar, they make life richer.
