Abstract
The author describes his experience working with a reader over the span of 20 years in which he recorded her speaking about her experience reading. The author moves the article from the individual experience to the universal experience in suggesting that a greater understanding of the reading experience will allow readers' advisers to make more insightful suggestions to their readers. The author describes how many readers find books in libraries. The imagery from the book "The Shadow of the Wind," by Ruiz Zafon is discussed.
