How to Read a Book

by Monica Wood

“Books won’t solve my problems, Harriet.” “No, but they give your problems perspective. They allow your problems to breathe.”

we are both the best thing and the worst thing we’ve ever done. We are all of it, all at once, all the time.

I used to race through books one after another, but in Book Club Harriet taught us that when you slow down, you notice more, and when you notice more, you feel more.
