I finally went to the library yesterday, after eleven months of living in this city and never getting around to it, and one of the first things I noticed was the one book, one Yongin program. I'd seen a similar idea back in Chicago: a library system sets a book for "everyone" to read, to build a spirit of community among the people who participate.


If you could pick one book that everyone in the world would read, what book would you pick and why?
you can message me with anything: questions, review requests, rants
are you a green room knight yet?
have you read this week's Squills?

The Bible . . . because people might just find there's more to it than they think.

Funny that a lot of people are like that with libraries.
For I who am poor have only my dreams
I spread my dreams under your feet . . .

. . . tread softly for you tread on my dreams.


We are masters of our silences, and slaves of our words

The Book Thief

It is very emotional and is a great read.

I would make everyone read my book ^__^ Does the book need to be bought and commission go back to the author, because that would be even better!

Pretending in words was too tentative, too vulnerable, too embarrassing to let anyone know.

I'd much rather them live their own experiences that are worth writing about.

Maybe Of Mice And Men, Steinbeck seemed pretty neat.

Dr. Seuss's Green Eggs and Ham:)

You do not like them.
So you say.
Try them! Try them!
And you may.
Try them and you may I say.
