If you were going to teach a subject, what would it be and why?

Jesuslovesme @MsBooklover (3974) • United States 12 Jan 18

I love English, and reading. That is what I would teach. When you teach people to read, you give them freedom. There are so many people out there who cannot read and write, and that creates a lack of freedom and potential for...

Ciao! has bitten the dust

Daniel @Danielclark691 (1097) 11 Jan 18

I'd Better Get Started Reading!

StacyB @Srbageldog (7716) • United States 11 Jan 18

I have a confession: sometimes I hoard books. Lately I have been on a paranormal romance novel kick, and have acquired a TON of new books from our library's used book store. I probably own enough to fill an entire romance section...
