For the Love of Books

Putting out a call to help once again! If you haven’t heard, our own wonderful Anne Johnson is teaching in a classroom that is sadly lacking in books for the male students.


She’s looking for some help expanding the classroom library with books for male students ages 12-20, especially any of the following:

1. Anything a male reader ages 12-20 would like: sci fi, horror, sports, war. War books should be about current or recent conflicts, no older than Vietnam.

2. Twilight or any of its sequels.

3. “His Dark Materials” trilogy, esp. The Golden Compass.

4. The Hobbit

Also, there’s not one single “Harry Potter” title in the room. And a shocking lack of nonfiction.

If you think you can help out in some way, head over to The Gods are Bored, and talk to Anne!

    Found 7 books so far, and used an old gift card to purchase a used Harry Potter from Amazon.There is nothing I like better than trying to encourage a love of books and learning!

  7. Oh Cool, I'll see if I have anything to contribute!
