Weekly Bookish Question #276 (March 13th - March 19th):
Are there books you read because you thought reading them would make you a better person? Can you give examples? Also, did it?
The one I distinctly remember having a choice over was the dictionary. I read the whole thing cover to cover in elementary school because I thought it would make me more intelligent and expand my vocabulary. I’m sure it did but what it really did was tech me how to find things in the dictionary, how to write out pronunciation keys for words, and spark a desire to collect words. It also made me unbeatable in Scrabble for a few years.
