A Book Ate My Baby

"Outside of a dog, a book is man's best friend. Inside of a dog it's too dark to read. "- Groucho Marx

peetas-spark asked: I would recommend you to read 'The Kite Runner' by Khaled Hosseini or something by Carlos Ruiz Zafón. (:

Hey! I’ve already read the Kite Runner :) Lovely book, but my favorite of his remains ‘A Thousand Splendid Suns’.

I’ll definitely look into Carlos Ruiz Zafón. I’ve read a lot of good things about him but never really had a chance to pick up any of his books. 

Thanks!

I went on an insane shopping spree. I regret nothing.
(P.S: Depending on how lazy I am, I may or may not write reviews for them. Most likely I will, though I don’t know if they’ll be chapter by chapter or not).

I was just organizing my bookshelf, and started sweating. I suppose this is how book nerds get exercise.

Books are not banned because they are inherently dangerous, or actually malicious, or even purposefully damning. Books like those are already avoided by those who do not agree with them. No, books are banned because there are people with power who fear the power of words. They fear the ideas and challenges put forth by such “dangerous” books. They hate the thought that their ideals could very easily be questioned or destroyed by simple ink and paper. And they wish to control, so they hate and they ban.
