Read this one as well but defiantly for ages I'd say maybe 16 or 17 and up. It can get very creepy and a little disturbing at times. But a very quick read.Sharp Objects by Gillian Flynn is a pretty great book! Not cheer related, but I read it in about two days!
I love Pride and Prejudice.My favorite new book is Death Comes to Pemberly by PD James. I am a huge Austen-phile so a sequel to Pride and Prejudice just tickled my fancy!
None of these are cheer specific, but...
For anyone with a Kindle (or who has the Kindle app), try out The Kindness of Strangers: Penniless Across America by Mike McIntyre. It's about a guy who decides to hitchhike across the country with no money, relying only on the kindness of the people he meets along the way (for reference, this happened in the mid-90's when hitchhiking would have been much more common/acceptable). If you've seen Craigslist Joe (currently on Netflix and I also highly recommend), it's a very similar premise.
Kind of off topic, but I miss going to the library and using the card catalog and the Dewey decimal system to find books. In those days, finding 20 sources for a paper was like my own version of "National Treasure".
I have a Masters in Library and Information Science....the card catalog has never been relevant in my life time (in fact the library at the university where I went to grad school uses old catalog cards as scratch paper...in little boxes next to the golf pencils). And I also was never taught the Dewey decimal system

That makes sense. Completely misread your post.I never said I didn't use it or didn't know it. I just said that I was never taught it in grad school. With catalog computers knowing its not really relevant. Sure I could tell a patron that wants a fairy tale/fable to go plunder around 398.2 or if you want a book on crafts go to the 700s. Need poetry? Go to 811. But that's just what I've picked up thru experience
But no. I didn't have a Dewey Decimal course.
