The Craft Beer Library

Hello fellow Bibliophiles!,

Just a week ago I was in Linden with my boyfriend trying out something new at an eatery called the "Craft Beer Library" situated in Linden. It is known for it's wide variety of craft beers and it's delicious food to pair with it. Now I know you're trying to piece together how this would be a great environment to read a book? Trust me when I say, the thought crossed my mind while sitting at my table, with my pink cider, on how perfect of an environment this would be for my future escapes!. I must add that my judgement could be based on the time of day that I arrived and spent at the CBL, which was around 12 pm to about 2pm during the day; nonetheless it was an amazing environment, beautiful interior and the sun was shining. I cannot end this blog post without giving you a little insight on my meal. I ordered "The Hogshead" which is pulled pork on a crunchy bun. . .It was to die for!.

This is merely my opinion, different environments can either impede your reading ability or make it a little more memorable? what is your take on reading outside of the comfort of your home?

Small Great Things-Jodi Picoult

Small great things! Smaaalll Great things! Oh Jodi Picoult. I must admit that it took me some time to finish this book. I would say the reason for this would be the contents of this book; there's a lot of information to digest, to understand, to sympathize with . . . and even relate to? Blurb "When a newborn baby dies after a routine hospital procedure, there is no doubt about who will be held responsible: the nurse who had been banned from looking after him by his father. What the nurse , her lawyer and the father of the child cannot know is how death will irrevocably change all of their lives , in ways both expected and not. Small Great Things is about prejudice and power; it is about that which divides us and unites us." This book tackles prejudice and racism,homophobia in the most phenomenal ways. Three characters Ruth Jefferson an African American nurse, Turk Bauer the white supremacist and Kennedy, Ruths lawyer and baby Davis....

The Shack-WM Paul Young

I have read many books in my life but none quite like The Shack , which not only shook the core beliefs or ideals of the main character Mackenzie Allen Phillips also known as "Mack", but quite honestly my own. The Shack starts pre-tragedy where Mack takes his three children on a camping trip, on this camping trip certain events lead to the abduction of his youngest daughter Missy by the " Little LadyKiller ". Four years later Mack has sunken into what he describes as " The Great Sadness ", in this time he finds a letter in his post box from "Papa", a name that his wife uses to refer to God, inviting him to come to the Shack. The Shack is of great significance as this is where they found his daughters bloodied clothing. He immediately assumes that this letter must come from the Little LadyKiller , however at the same time cannot understand how the serial killer would know to sign it with the words "Papa". Without giving away too man...
