Spring is here, the trees turning lush with green and shade, and I want to go to the park with a blanket, a picnic, and a book. Summer will be coming soon with heat and sunshine, and I want to go to the beach to sit where the ocean meets the shore and read while cold waves lap at my feet. August will be here before we know it, and I want to go to my favorite lake in New England and drift with my book on a tube out on the water. When autumn comes and the air gets chilly, I\u2019ll make coffee and linger over my book long after I\u2019ve finished breakfast. And when winter comes and darkness falls before evening really begins, I\u2019ll lie down on the couch with my book, and I won\u2019t mind the dark one bit.<\/p>\n
