I'm re-reading Finding Peace In A Frantic World at the minute, the book that brought me to mindfulness in the first place.
I particularly love this quote:
'An experienced meditator is not someone whose mind does not wander, but one who gets very used to beginning again.'

It's really interesting to read a book again after some time having practiced and expanded your knowledge in that particular area. At least that's how I felt this summer when I read the Frantic Peace book again, I could relate much better to the content and everything! Helped me a lot in manifesting my approach to mindfulness...

The quote says it all (in my opinion). It's a book that I'll re-read at some point in the future.

Yes, it's the book that got me started on this adventure. So I'll always be immensely grateful to it.
For anyone who is interested, here's an interview I did with Dr. Danny Penman (co-author of Frantic World) for this site:
