Reading is definitely an infection - thank God, one with no cure.

Love!!! I can remember reading around the clock as a kid. Now my daughter does the same thing. It is infectious for sure!

Shalom.

Please can you educate this old bat: what is manga?

Mangs is japanese graphic novels (comics) with a little more mature aspect to some of them. My favorite is one based on the life of Buddha, with added stuff thrown in.

And no, its not my favorite because of the nickname,lol. The nickname came from my occasional philosophical ideas and from my younger days when I enjoyed certain green pharmaceuticals,lol! I find myself to be a mix of Homer (Simpson) and Jim Morrison, at least some old friends put it that way,hahahaha!
