My 6,128 Favorite Books

   I love this whole article in general because as he goes on he uses terminology from the books and also metaphors he has gained from reading so many. The point that he made also which really intrigued me is that it shouldn't matter what the book is or article if it catches your interest read it, it can only benefit you. With all those books under his belt I bet his vocabulary is beyond ridiculous and he can see what kind of Literary Terms the author may be using and how to use them to help understand the story better. As you gain more experience with books you tend to get a feel of how they work unless your just reading a author that is completely unlike any other person. " I've read books while waiting for friends to get sprung from the drunk tank, while waiting for people to emerge from comas, while waiting for the Iceman to cometh." This is a metaphor I didn't really understand but I'm assuming its from a story he read about Iceman but I thought it was pretty cool he did this to encourage reading. He exaggerates to show his passion for reading books all the time and encourages others to give it a try!
