What’s the last book that made you cry? Do books make you cry? • I had a totally different post planned for today, but then I spent my afternoon finishing Suggested Reading. I cried off and on for the last 80 or so pages. You all, this book is so good. So so good. It asks really great questions about whether or not books should be banned. It shows the effects books have on individuals and groups. But most importantly, for me, it shows how important books are, how beautiful and sad and strengthening they are. How they send ripples out into the world that are unimaginable. And as someone who started writing because I wanted to create something that would have a ripple like that, even very tiny barely there one, this book illustrated something really beautiful for me. I can’t recommend it enough. • My full review will be up this weekend, I’ll be sure to post on here when it’s up(let’s be real, what I mean is when I’ve had enough time to truly process how much I actually love this book and figure out how to put that into something resembling a coherent review)! • • • #suggestedreading #bannedbooks #daveconnis #shelfie #steelepages https://www.instagram.com/p/B2pRzmoADnk/?igshid=1g9q5s5z1j2gm
