I came across this incredible gem on Dizengoff st. It is called Katzman Gallery and they sell thousands of books in various conditions. And if you buy one, you can bring it back and get half price on your next book purchase. • • It’s really nice to see shops like these, and when I have the chance I prefer to purchase my books from them rather than huge bookstore chains. • • I believe in keeping stores like these alive and running as well as reading books. They have power and magic like nothing else does, and I hope that never dies. • • How about you? Do you prefer second hand books/ shops? Do you also prefer to buy in local shops rather than chains? • • • • • • • • • • #bookstacks #bookstores #secondhandbooks #secondhandbookshop #localbookshops #localbookstore #bookshelves #readbooks #readmorebooks #keepbookstoresalive #keepbooksalive #keepreading #dizengoff #dizengoffstreet #dizengoffstore #bookswap #magicofbooks #thepowerofbooks #readandwrite #readingandwriting #bookaddicts #bookaddiction (at Dizengoff Street) https://www.instagram.com/p/CCoOYziJHRQ/?igshid=gil5zxct8vdp

There’s been lots of talk about walls lately, and the types of people that a wall keeps people “safe” from. The Wall in the Middle of the Book by Jon Agee is a simple yet powerful book about fears, prejudice, and the unexpected. Great read aloud for primary. - - #teachingliteracy #thatbooklife #readalouds #jonagee #thewallinthemiddleofthebook #books #tolerance #elementaryteacher #thepowerofbooks https://www.instagram.com/p/Br49mGiBV-j/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=cacnzsvjhvz7

Books...

They take you into a parallel universe where words flood your brain like a river thats bank has been burst, 

the sea of words fill your head 

problems and thoughts seem to fade.

It numbs you, 

it drowns you

as it fills your head with such contrasting images,

reality seems to fade from your everlasting clutch until,

 all that is left is 

nothing.

Just back from the first « in presence » session of the « Conseil des Sages » (Board of Advisors) @loveforlivres : the development of the company founded by Céline Mas is amazing! Lots of exciting projects ahead. And these three books/audiobooks involving members of the Board are true rewards 👏 #thepowerofbooks #loveforlivres #bibliotherapy #liredelivre https://www.instagram.com/p/CQi3EyurcCH/?utm_medium=tumblr

Good morning, Boston! It’s been a fabulous few days exploring all this city has to offer, and today it’s time to give back a little. @juliaforboston and @blessedbethebrains are hosting me this afternoon for a conversation about writing, intersectionality, and community building. We’ll be talking about my journey with On What May Be, the role of openness in creating stronger interpersonal and community bonds, and how reading and writing can help us understand each other better. If you’re in the area, come join us! You can bring your own writing to share; ask questions about the writing, editing, or publishing process; or just sit back and listen! (376 Center St. in Jamaica Plain from 1:30-3:30; September 29th) #butfirstcoffee #community #communitybuilding #writingcommunity #thepowerofbooks #poetry #poet #poetrycommunity #boston #halifax #howdowebuildcommunity #honesty #intersectionalfeminism #intersectionality #jointheconversation #writing (at North End, Boston) https://www.instagram.com/p/B2_6hfLHaZZ/?igshid=1u6hqbmuynasb

IF YOU DON’T LIKE READING, THEN YOU HAVEN’T FOUND THE RIGHT BOOK. #repost @thesuccessfield We become the books we read. #godsword For the word of God is alive and active. Sharper than any double-edged sword, it penetrates even to dividing soul and spirit, joints and marrow; it judges the thoughts and attitudes of the heart.- Heb.4:12 #beautyinbooks One must always be careful of books and what is inside them, for words have the power to change us. #books We can have the mind of Christ when we meditate on the Word of God. #reading People think you’re mad or sentimental if you say reading can save your life. But it can. Stories give you everything. They can make you believe you can change. That humans can change. That’s what a story is. Change. #readingbooks Some books you read. Some books you enjoy. But some books just swallow you up, heart and soul. #read In the case of good books, the point is not to see how many of them you can get through, but rather how many can get through you. #agoodbook Expose to God’s Word is not enough. It needs to be absorbed. #readmorebooks If we encounter a man of rare intellect, we should ask him what books he reads. #readthebible A book is a magical thing that lets you travel to far-away places without ever leaving your chair. #wordofgod Fairy tales are more than true; not because they tell us that dragons exist, but because they tell us that dragons can be beaten. #readingmorebooks Reading gives us some place to go when we have to stay where we are. #powerinbooks If God’s Word stays inside you long enough and goes into you deep enough, there is no height that you cannot reach. #readingispowerful Read a book: Time for yourself, with yourself, is the key to heal yourself. #thevalueinbooks If you are going to get anywhere in life you have to read a lot of books. #powerinreadingthebible WE HAVE TO CHANGE BOOKS IF WE WANT BOOKS TO CHANGE US. #thepowerofbooks It’s not about what other people are reading right now, it’s about if you’re reading something that’s a fit for you right now. #thepowerinreading I look at books as being a from of activism because a lot of times they’ll show us a side of the world that we may not have known about.

I remember reading 1984 in 1984. This was the time period when schools held drills for a nuclear attack, the news coverage was filled with images of Soviet tanks rolling in parades in Moscow under the watch of old men in big furry hats, and a wall existed between east and west Berlin. My teacher stressed to a room of fourteen year olds that the Soviet Union had implemented a lot of the Orwellian methods of control over their citizens. Kids our age in the Soviet Union would never have the opportunities and freedoms we enjoyed. I had nightmares about America losing to the Soviets. The idea of living in an Orwellian society was terrifying, and I hoped that somehow the American government would keep us from falling into the dystopian reality of the Soviet Union. Then the wall came down. The Soviet Union dissolved. And it seemed the threat was over. I was so naive. I just finished reading about the massive reprint of 1984. Since it leaped to the top of the bestseller list again and has sold out, a new print run has been ordered. That so many people are snapping up copies of the book filled me with that old familiar gut-wrenching dread. But then I had epiphany. How profound is it that when we heard the words "alternative facts" we all thought of Orwell's chilling dystopian novel? How powerful that we identified the Orwellian context and threat in those two words? This is the power of the written word. This is the power of books made manifest. And it gives me hope. #thepowerofbooks #thepowerofwords #resist #demandthetruth #dontgiveup #freedomofspeech

"Stories are for joining the past to the future. Stories are for those late hours in the night when you can't remember how you got from where you were to where you are. Stories are for eternity, when memory is erased, when there is nothing to remember except the story. . . But this too is true: stories can save us." /// Once upon a time Nicke from @page261 messaged me about coming up with a bookish mug for her shop. After weeks of brainstorming and horrible ideas on my part (I could only think of cheesy puns I swear), it was when I posted a line from THE THINGS THEY CARRIED that Nicke messaged me and was like THAT THAT THAT. Hence, this mug was born. /// Page 261 got its name from Nicke's favorite page of GOD-SHAPED HOLE, a book that called to her, means something to her--and helped save her. This lovely "Stories Can Save Us" mug debuted in @page261's shop today, and for the month of March a portion of the mug's proceeds will go to the American Foundation for Suicide Prevention. So if you're going to get one (and you should!), now's the time. /// 👉🏻What story saved you? #bookstagram #bookgram #booknerdigans #booknerd #bookish #instabook #igreads #epicreads #bookstagramfeature #bookishfeatures #booksoutofdoors #booksandnature #bookishglee #violetfeatures #bookstagrammer #libraryofinstagram #libraryofbookstagram #pnw #thethingstheycarried #timobrien #godshapedhole #tiffaniedebartolo #storiescansaveus #thepowerofbooks #booksandcoffee #bookmerch #bookmug #mugsofinstagram #page261love (at Save Your Story)
