The Library Card

Last weekend I got a library card. It was the first library card I’ve had in about 20 years. Now, I'm positively manic about reading. I am flying through books, reading an entire novel in 1 to 2 days. What is worse is that it wasn't satisfying enough to only read one book at a time, so I've got three going simultaneously! I'm reading stuff I never would have bought, but since it's free, why not. Audio, hardback, paperback. Fiction, non-fiction, young adult, mystery, romance. I read them all. This library card is a power I'm not sure I can control. It is starting to consume me. I have a thirst for knowledge that doesn't seem to get quenched. I can't get enough! I need help!
