She refers to them as 'sins' because people feel or fear they will feel judged by others. And, no, I agree that there aren't literary sins. ;-)Kayhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13495669354860191042noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2755001368713174831.post-4505836726871806082018-10-03T05:18:20.135-05:002018-10-03T05:18:20.135-05:00I agree.

In the first half of my life (roughly) I did not know that many people who read as much as I did, and by then I was comfortable with my own choices. I strongly agree on two things: I love to reread and and I wish I had started a book journal much earlier in my life. TracyKhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08303342674824383688noreply@blogger.com
