For the past few years, I have been a volunteer book reviewer for several online sites. Honestly, I was looking for a paid position to review books for say Publisher's Weekly and a few other companies, but they have never let me know one way or another. Being a book reviewer, one learns a lot and it does get lonely at times as does being a freelance writer but that does not bother me. Books are great company for me. Books are our friends.
Books of all kinds with
opportunities to learn about
other people and ideas
keeping me
reading and
reflecting my ideas to
every other reader of
various
interests with
enough
wonder to
indicate that
nothing is
greater than books to learn and enjoy.

Standing While Falling
Quotation from Friedrich Nietzsche "He who wrestles long with monsters should beware lest he himself become a monster. And if you gaze long into an abyss, the abyss also gazes into you. Man is not destroyed by suffering, but by the meaning he makes of it."

I have always loved books from the time I learned to read. I remember running home from school and telling all the big kids, "I can read," and then proceed to make them listen to me read Dick and Jane. Books open up worlds. I found "disciplined" book clubs annoying because it ruined my enjoyment of the book!
I think reviewing is tough. 😊💕
Oh yessss, books are definitely our friends! Loved your poem!
