Booklover

What is a book lover? Everytime I go to the mall anywhere in the world, I will visit the bookstores, any bookstore that has books in English. Today in Darwin, there are 3 bookstores in Casuarina Mall. The bookstores are small compared to Kino or Borders. The selection is limited. Still there are some books that were different as the readers have different interests. I brow through a couple of books like Getting rich through real estates were written by Australian authors using Australian examples. So a lot of the categories are the same, there are local examples. Hence the wisdow of "Acres of Diamonds" about wealth in your own backyard. Books is a great store of knowledge and entertainment. It is good for relaxation and help past time while waiting for friends, business associates, in the plane, at night in the hotel room, while having a haircut. "Reading maketh a man" says Francis Bacon, a self-made American(who is also a scientist, philosopher and businessman)
