findingthehollow:

“My parents would frisk me before family events. Before weddings, funerals, bar mitzvahs, and what have you. Because if they didn’t, then the book would be hidden inside some pocket or other and as soon as whatever it was got under way I’d be found in a corner. That was who I was…that was what I did. I was the kid with the book.”

…oddly, me too, if I could figure out how to hide it. As a girl who disdained purses (later, I figured out they were good for this) hiding books was difficult. :/
