"If you take a book with you on a journey,…an odd thing happens: The book begins collecting your memories. And forever after you have only to open that book to be back where you first read it. It will all come into your mind with the very first words: the sights you saw in that place, what it smelled like, the ice cream you ate while you were reading it…yes, books are like flypaper—memories cling to the printed page better than anything else."

YA Books That Make Good Travelling Companions
YA books where music plays a big role.
"What better way to get to know someone than through her choice and treatment of books?"

Last week I made a list of book blogs on tumblr. You can see the list here.
It was not working temporarily, but it’s back and I added a fair bit to it. Since I’ve gotten a few requests to see it again, I thought I’d repost it. This list is very short compared to all the blogs that mainly focus on books, so if you are not on the list and should be write in my ask. If you ever want to look at this and can’t find it, there’s a link in my FAQ."Books have to be heavy because the whole world’s inside them."
