Rub a Dub, I Love Reading in the Tub
I like to read in the bathtub. Ideally, that bathtub would be located on a small Greek island. –Adam Mansbach
Read in the Bathtub Day is a holiday dedicated to taking some time for yourself. In America, February 9th is National Read in the Bathtub Day. Although I found this out recently, reading in the bathtub has been one of my favorite secret pastimes since childhood.
Have you ever sat in a nice warm bath, and read a book?
February 9th is dedicated to two relaxing pastimes: taking a bath and reading books. It is unknown who started the day, but troubles and stresses are sure to be eased by all who participate.

“The author, Sanela Ramic Jurich, paints a devastating picture of what Selma’s life becomes and the effects of war. She does not spare the listener with soft descriptions but rather gives them the bare truth of war and the horrible devastating actions of evil men subjecting women and children to extremes in suffering. Each character is skillfully built and developed into vivid people that are forced to suffer the most painful, devastating emotional and physical pain a human can endure. She eases her listeners into the story by showing us familiar acts and emotions – shopping, falling in love, family and friendships. The suddenness of the war reaching her hometown is unexpected and jarring and where she highlights the despair, pain, raw emotions, fear, and more. The love story between two people is amazing and provides hope and renewal. She brings the story full circle and demonstrates that healing is possible. The story flows steadily. Not only are her words powerful but her imagery is as well. The book is powerful with raw emotions.
“The narrator, Lindsay Carrillo provides a moving performance projecting the excitement, love, and passion for life that Selma has until the unthinkable happens. She then projects the horror, pain, despair, anger, and more with each passing word. It is as if she has become Selma with each passing word. Carrillo takes the listeners through the renewal of Selma as she confronts her attacker and reclaims some of what she has lost. I have not had the pleasure of hearing Carrillo prior to this book, but her performance is amazing.
