Today my kid complained to me that she had finished her schoolwork early and now had five hours of class time coming up with nothing to do but read, and she needs to know that she has chosen the wrong audience.

            I donโt know how many books Iโve read this year. But what if our counts donโt matter, but the words that echoed or broke our hearts, the stories that stuck with us, the ones that we put down or couldnโt, the ideas that changed us? Tell me those stories. I donโt care about your count or mine.
