Day 363 Public Reading

Have you ever read a book in a restaraunt before?  A cafe?  A fancy sit-down place?  I tried one time, at Panera Bread, but either the mood wasn't right or the book was dull--I lasted but a few moments. I just could not escape the conversations around me and enter a reader's world.  Today, I tried again.  Same place, different book.  "The Lady of Hidden Intent" pulled me right in, and I found myself putting off important errands to turn the pages and remain in this hidden world.  All chatter around me faded away and there I was--in 1856.
