I have this idea that some books can come to you when you most need them.  I've had Life since Christmas, and I started reading it then, but I wasn't ready for it.  When I picked it up again, it was at a point where I needed to read that book, to have a certain type of reassurance in the way I live my own life.  I ended up finishing that book in a few days because of what I needed from it.  Books can be escapism, books can be a reassurance, books can end up being whatever you need them to be.  Books are amazing!
