I like dictionaries and encyclopedias.
Every day is a new day and exploring new words is part of it for me. I may not use them but I like to learn about them. Encyclopedias are the same way. It is easy to search for something on-line but it can be a lot of fun to read the books. I like to read these books for fun and for relaxation. I also like old dictionaries, hardbound, and have a couple at work and a couple at home. When I was in my twenties, I learned that my mother always loved to read dictionaries as a child growing up. That was a neat moment of finding something in common that crossed generations - a love of words. A passion, really.
