There are over 40 books in my home ranging from magazines, manuals, textbooks, and self-interest books stored in my bookshelf. The first book I remember interacting with is Because of Winn Dixie by Kate DiCamillo in second grade. I don’t really choose books by covers but rather titles and then I will read the little blurb and I’m sold. Just like my music taste I prefer any kind of book, new or old, anything that I find interesting. My mother took us there religiously and when we wanted to get fancy we went to Barnes and Noble after seeing a movie in the court street cinema. From a young age I remember my brother and I practically living in the library by our childhood home in Bedstuy. They can get on my nerves but love is never lost. I will be the last one standing outside when the oldest library is in foreclosure with a sign stating “ Books are humans too”. Hi my name is Diamond Jacobs and I am a book lover.
