I
confess. Sometimes I put books on hold at the library not because of their
words, but because of their pictures. These are the “coffee table” books that
people don’t really read, just leaf
through.
Except
I do read them, I promise.
I
borrowed 100 Dives of a Lifetime
because I figured there would be plenty of pretty pictures, and I might learn
something about diving. Not that I really am interested going diving
myself—I’ve done enough of that vicariously through Shark Week…besides, I’m rather claustrophobic—but because one never
knows whether learning about diving will inspire writing an adventure novel, or
at the very least aid a conversation with someone who does like to dive.
