books...

I've been sorting through my books and trying to pin down what makes a book a favourite of mine.. can't quite tell.. I do have a fondness for old books without jackets that look like someone has "gently used" it, because I feel connected to someone else who has loved it..
I think my favourite books have created a type of measuring stick to everything else i read i suppose that's a common situation.. I think that's true of my music and media experiences as well..

6 shows I try to catch regularly(not necessarily in order)

American/Canadian pickers
Murdoch Mysteries
19 kids & counting
reruns of Gilligan's Island
reruns of Walton's
