Wow, that sounds like a big bonus to therapy! My husband and I have owned a book store for 11 years (collected books for 30 years), and I'm very comfortable with discussing books with people. But then I worry that my T isn't used to that, and the last thing I'd want is for her to feel bad.
If it wasn't for the potential of hurt feelings, this situation would be comical. Every time she says, "Ohhh...I have a book I think you'll enjoy, it's one of my favorites!" I outwardly smile, inwardly cringe
