But it is impossible, I find, to tidy books without ending by sitting on the floor in the middle of a great untidiness and reading.

Sitting on the floor.

I have some tidying to do but someone might have to help me get up from the floor. 🙂

Ah, the floor. I avoid it.

Definitely impossible! And difficult to stay on track with the cleaning when there are books to peruse.

Although I can no longer sit on the floor (or rather, I can’t get up once I’m down there) I agree that sorting through one’s books can take a very long time. All the books we forgot we had and just have to take a peek at.

A perfect description – especially as I am now spurred to do a lot of my own book clearing to make space for storing my son’s collection as he is going to work abroad!

I laughed out loud, the photo being so appropriate to the quote. Which book did she have this quote in?
