I absolutely love books. There were two books in particular I really wanted: The Wealth of Nations by Adam Smith and The Law of Success by Napoleon Hill.
So, I got what I wanted. And boy… did I get it.
How about The Wealth of Nations has over 1,200 pages and The Law of Success has over 600?! Nation has small print and NO pictures; Success is bigger in size and print, but I’m not sure about pictures.
The mere thought of reading these books is overwhelming. I know I will be so much smarter and enlightened after reading them, but geez!
I just wanted to share my mild state of shock and to remind you to be careful what you wish for…even with books.
Have you ever desired a book and was shocked by the number of pages? Share your story.
