Description
Reading has been vital to my life. It has kept my imagination alive and has fueled my capacity to communicate with others. I have been blessed with access to hundreds of books and see part of my role in life as sharing that abundance with others.
That said… remember that I will be choosing a book for you in a randomly. Sometimes the book we would not choose for ourselves pushes us out of our own habits and gets us to bring into view voices that we would have otherwise ignored.
When I was in 6th grade I walked into my local public library and asked the children’s librarian to choose for me a book that I might like to read. After some brief questions she found a book for me… and she continued to find book after book for me until I finished high school. Growing up was not easy for me for many different reasons. Somehow with a book in my hand I was not alone even when I was alone. The journey continues and there is so much to encounter… and we can only take in so much through direct experience. I hope these books might become an open door for you as it was for me.
