The greatest compliment that you can pay to a book you love isn’t the sparkling review that you blog after you’ve finished, nor how many stars you “rate” the book. It isn’t even the conversation in a coffee shop with a friend in which you go on and on about how amazing a book you’ve read. The greatest compliment that you can pay to a book you love…and to its author…is lending that book to someone else, and letting them experience what you have experienced. That is what I hope happens to someone with my writing, because it is the highest honor for the author of those words you love.
