I can connect with you in this feeling for books!
My first book was "Nacho Lee", with which my mother taught me to read, I can never forget that smell and the images that made me travel to other worlds. Since then I have read even in secret at night, after my parents say "is enough, turn off the light and go to sleep", then I managed to keep reading.
One of the literary works that I loved is One Hundred years of Solitude by Gabriel Garcia Marquez. Magical realism, is a really incredible book
Have a nice day @dswigle
