Important Books

It was frigid last weekend so I did my favorite thing. After that, I plugged in the space heater and cracked open an important book. I only read important books.

But, Saffron, how do you know which books are important and which aren’t?

It’s easy. The publishing companies tell you upfront, right on the cover. Usually it’s a quote from the author, or someone else you’ve never heard of, proclaiming THIS IS AN IMPORTANT BOOK!!! There’s a ton of important books published every year, so it never takes long to find one. At first this surprised me. I used to think an important book would be hard to write. Obviously not. People do it all the time.

But, Saffron, should I let someone else tell me a book is important? That’s so subjective. Shouldn’t I decide whether I think a book is important after I’ve read it?

No.
