Are you a student? buy rulide I tend to be chary of the idea of comfort reading. To me it suggests complacency, a hankering for?reassurance, or the restoration of?an earlier period ??? typically childhood ??? through the enveloping power of what Proust called involuntary memory. These aren't things I look for from books. One thing in its favour, however, is that comfort reading is an act of rereading, and many seasoned readers insist that that is the most rewarding kind of reading there is.
