Hello! I just started working at a library earlier this year. Do you have any suggestions for books that I should read? I'm familiar with a lot of classics and books on the universal reading list, so do you have any suggestions for contemporary lit? :)

Sure! I’d recommend anything by John Green, The Book Thief, The Shadow of the Wind, Life of Pi, Norwegian Wood, The History of Love, Mr. Penumbra’s 24 Hour Bookstore, The Unlikely Pilgrimage of Harold Fry, The 100-Year Old Man Who Climbed Out the Window and Disappeared, Extremely Loud and Incredibly Close and The Guernsey Literary and Potato Peel Pie Society.

"In approved places, every story serves a purpose. But forbidden books are so much more. Some of them are webs; you can feel your way along their threads, but just barely, into strange and dark corners. Some of them are balloons bobbing up through the sky: totally self contained, and unreachable, but beautiful to watch.
And some of them-the best ones-are doors."

— Lauren Oliver, Pandemonium

List of Book Blogs 2.0

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.

"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."

— Inkheart by Cornelia Funke (via bookstorecouture)
