Food for Thought
“That’s the thing about books. They let you travel without moving your feet.”
—Jhumpa Lahiri
— Oscar Wilde.
As I embark on this journey of book blogging, I want to make my goals clear to my readers. I began this blog to share my likes, dislikes, and take-aways from books that I read. Working in an elementary school library is a wonderful, fulfilling job; however, I cannot talk about some of my favorite books with 12 year-olds. I can impress upon the children my love of reading, and suggest some of my most beloved books from childhood, but who do I discuss my current books with? My husband can only stand me ranting about random books for so long.
I want this blog to be a place for people to discover new books to read, to discuss thoughts about current books, and to reminisce about past book journeys. I am thrilled to get your opinions about different books; however, my only request is that we all act civilly on this site. People should be excited to share their thoughts online, and I want this to be a safe place for anyone to state their opinion. An opinion is an opinion because there is no one right answer.
That being said, I hope that this can be a place to have open discussions about booky topics and how they impact lives. I look forward to learning from your feedback and comments, and I can’t wait to receive book suggestions from you all.
I hope that you enjoy a journey with a good book!
Thank you for your support!
