Modus Eundi

I read every day. I try to read books every day. A book and a Kindle will never be the same. As I have grown older I have found books have become richer, more sage, in short they have changed. For example I first read The Great Gatsby when I was seventeen. Then I thought it an amazing story of hopeless love. Twenty years later, I realize Gatsby was a psychopath and Daisy had Bipolar, probably as a result of Post Natal Depression. Maybe I am just more cynical now.
