![]() ![]() In honor of #namjoonday his favorite books are on sale for 7 days! □□□□□. Case in point, Barnes and Noble where people can peruse through an entire separate section dedicated to his recommendations. ![]() ![]() Is this anything Namjoon can’t do? What has particularly got everyone took is RM’s influence on the booktok that has made big moves in major bookstores across the globe. His first solo album Indigo is his last love letter to his twenties he traverses through a lot of topics, sharing his views and sentiments while showcasing a diverse range of musical styles through working with various artists. It might be a tired cliche but the books on a person’s shelf do make statements about the individual and for Namjoon fans, it’s a treat. But those who go beyond the platitudes and follow their favourites on Instagram and deep dive in to their lives, more accurately described as stalking, will know that Namjoon is also an ardent art and literature lover. He’s a Grammy-nominated artist, fondly called RM, who is acclaimed for his rapping and songwriting skills. ![]() ![]() ![]() Roberta also mentioned the “clever” ways that Foer plays with the text and design throughout the book. Both Oskar and the reader have been played. As Roberta revealed in her Writer’s Review, it turns out that Oskar’s mom does know what he is doing and has surreptitiously arranged it so that Oskar is safe the whole time. But, for the sake of the story, I was willing to suspend that disbelief and keep reading. I enjoyed his story line, his search for his lost father in New York City, even though I didn’t find it very believable that Oskar’s mother would allow him to roam NYC on his own. ![]() Not wanting to confuse myself by reading two books by the same author at the same time, I set aside Here I Am to read later and began reading our book selection. This past December I noticed the book on the “new releases” shelf at my local library, so I brought it home, only to discover that it was written by the same author as our next book, Extremely Loud and Incredibly Close. ![]() ![]() The interview was interesting enough that I added Here I Am to my “must read” list.

![]() ![]() To my surprise, three different people went out of their way to tell me how great the comic was before I left the store that day. “Thanks, it’s for my girlfriend,” I said, too loudly. I think this was maybe a by-product from years of training myself to gloss over anything Aquaman. “Where can I find the Aquaman comics?” I whispered.Īfter having me repeat the question, he led me to the ‘A’ section of the DC shelf, which I probably should have been able to find on my own. I couldn’t find it on the shelf, so I had to call over an employee. I always assumed Aquaman comics were underwater harlequin romance with occasional stabbings. The character has been a joke for years now, and it felt oddly shameful, as if I was buying a copy of Fifty Shades of Grey or a Bill O’Reilly book. I bought this for my girlfriend quite a while back, and I have to admit it was strange picking this up at my local comic book store. ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() If you are having trouble finding the link to add a new thread, try this.

When it was photographed in 1983, the house had not changed, only mellowed, since that day in 1965, but the once white walls were gray-a 20 percent color-saturated gray, the very critical tonal intensity the photographer felt preserved the integrity of the values in his photographs.
