Rediscovering my joy of reading...

[murksiderock]

I'm flying outta town for work in a few hours but I stopped at the Green Rd library near me in North Raleigh, as recently I've had an itch to start reading again...

I have a desire to live a cleaner, healthier lifestyle, and in accordance with that, that means physically and mentally. Reading is something I enjoyed as a child, I read when I did time, and I do think being a voracious reader for much of my life developed me in positive ways...

I haven't read since the end of my last lengthy jail run which was over 9 years ago. I'm honestly shamed and embarrassed...

I forgot libraries existed, and how serene and exciting at the same time they are. Looking forward to more and here's to challenging everyone else to continue to find their passions and happy places; the library is one of mine!

Read the book, "Eat Right for Your (Blood) Type" if you haven't already.

I’ve always preferred physical books over digital. They are bastions of wealth, and still socially stratified like the education system. The best libraries in my city are downtown, and in the suburbs

I remember when my mom put me in the local library summer camp, it really fostered a love for learning.

I recommend getting an e reader and look up Z-library

I also haven't read in a very long time. I used to devour books in a few days. I bought a kindle 2 months agos and I'm 5 books in. I got like 70 books on deck.

Only book I checked out is The 1619 Project, been years wanting to read it...

In general I like books wrotten about black history like this. I like horror novels, I like thrillers like the Jack Reacher books, I like murder mysteries. Every once in awhile I'll try something in a different genre but these are my go-to's...

I've never been able to do e-reading or audio books. Tried a few times, just not my thing!

I'm super excited that I went to the library!

You should read, "Hannibal" when you get a chance. It's boring but great. They geaux into great detail about his military strategies and his biography.

King Hannibal was the greatest African King.

Reading is the best. Try and read at least 15 minutes a day. Currently reading Malcolm X’s biography by Alex Haley

Physical > digital but if you really trying to read through shyt and move around a lot a paperwhite kindle is great. Libraries got digital libraries now too, idk if they work with kindle but I'd assume.

Check out 1491 and 1493 by Charles Mann. They examine the impact of Columbus on the western hemisphere before he came versus afterwards.

i'm getting back into it too. i found this while browsing my local antique market last week, one vendor had a fire collection of books. A friend gave me Mama Day a long time ago and I enjoyed it, so i thought i'd add on to my gloria naylor collection.
