One of the things my father and I shared was a love of fantasy literature. 🐉📖
He introduced me to my first favorite author, Anne McCaffrey.
Some of our favorites:
🗡️ Anne McCaffrey
🗡️ J.R.R. Tolkien
🗡️ Terry Brooks
🗡️ Tad Williams

There was something quietly magical about signing your name, sliding the card back in, and carrying a story home. 📚🖊️
No notifications. No algorithms. Just trust, time, and the promise to return what changed you a little.
Some rituals deserve remembering. ✨

What’s your earliest or fondest memory of reading? For me, it was spotting my parents’ shelf of books and—purely by chance—picking out The Hobbit.

Stories stay with us. ✨ An elderly lady with dementia remembered a beloved book from 1938.

Black and white cover of Bloke Modisane's "Blame me on history". The image showing rubble on the streets of Sophiatown after its destruction.
Bought this during a London trip with our English major class, in 2002 I think 🙃 It deeply affected me.
Found it in the seemingly oldest and most cramped second hand book store ever (like ever!) around Camden Lock Market (I believe).
What's your #bookmemories ? Would love to hear about them!
Beautiful. It makes me think of Anne of Green Gables. #bookmemories
