Why read books? Because books are still the most powerful, reliable, transportive & magical storytelling technology we've invented - and all they need to work is YOUR OWN IMAGINATION! #booksky

"I read something about medicine once. It Goes like this: "Medicine no less than religion is a matter of the spirit, of the figurative heart of the soul. True medicine embraces the belief that each and every one of us is important, and we are under the canopy of heaven alike."" - Chris Stevens

Living in the US right now means that sometimes it all gets too much and I need a safe place to go when it becomes too overwhelming for me. Books are my safe place.

My current book obsession... drawn to the vintage photo on the cover, I've been smitten by this intriguing WWll historical fiction novel. It has relatable characters, a bit of a mystery, a touch of romance, wit, and a beautiful setting.

Have you ever read a book and thought to yourself “everyone I know needs to read this”? A novel so utterly brilliant in both content and delivery that you know you will be shouting loud…

Books are teachers. Books are resistance. Books are time machines. Books are liberation.
Read more books.

Resist the regime.

Reading books is resistance.

Buying books is resistance.

Sharing books is resistance.

Celebrating books is resistance.

Resist this regime.

For most of history, people didn’t read books, they listened to them. Audiobooks are not a shortcut, they’re a return to our roots. 📖 #BookSky

Are we becoming numb
to the endless outrages?

Struggling against
normalizing
noxious,
vicious
government
policies.

Soul is
torn
a little more each day.
Heart fractures,
mind aches.

The desperate and understandable human desire for normalcy is absolutely screwing our nation right now. Denial and minimizing are marching us right past the line of no return.

I've been seeing a lot of posts about readers trying to curb their own book buying. Let me remind you of the library. Libraries can use your support now more than ever. When you checkout library books this lets funding authorities know the library is worthy of taxpayer money. 1/3
