Wandering in Books

My name is Karin Mai Mori. On this blog, I'll be blogging about my favorite topic: BOOKS - I love reading them, owning them, and occasionally smelling them (strange, I know). I'll put up recommendations for books, what I'm reading, and what I'm going to read. I'll try to put up some book reviews if I have time and the patience. Check out my books on Goodreads: http://www.goodreads.com/profile/karinlovesbooks Harry Potter by J.K. Rowling The Hunger Games by Suzanne Collins Percy Jackson and the Olympians by Rick Riordan Uglies by Scott Westerfeld Matched by Ally Condie

I am writing to you because she said you listen and understand and didn’t try to sleep with that person at that party even though you could have.  Please don’t try to figure out who she is because then you might figure out who I am, and I really don’t want you to do that. [..]
I just need to know that someone out there listens and understands and doesn’t try to sleep with people even if they could have. I need to know that these people exist.

Tomorrow, I start my sophomore year of high school. [..]
So, if this does end up being my last letter, please believe that things are good with me, and even when they’re not, they will be soon enough.
And I will believe the same about you.
Love always,
Charlie

  • Boo: Go talk to her.
  • Rory: About what?
  • Boo: Anything.
  • Rory: You want me to walk up to her and say, "Are you a ghost?"
  • Boo: I do that.
  • Callum: I love it when you get it wrong.

Book Recommendation #3: The Name of the Star by Maureen Johnson

Fear can’t hurt you…When it washes over you, give it no power. It’s a snake with no venom. Remember that. That knowledge can save you.

It is better to be alone, she figures, than to be with someone who can’t see who you are. It is better to lead than to follow. It is better to speak up than stay silent. It is better to open doors than to shut them on people. She will not be simple and sweet. She will not be what people tell her to be.
