Parkland | Dave Cullen

This one was great on audio. Both heartbreaking and surprisingly uplifting, Parkland tells the story of the activism that rose out of the horrific shooting at Marjory Stoneman Douglas high school in Florida.

stacybmartin I just finished listening to this one, too - really well-done. 6y

readtheworld @stacybmartin Glad you liked it! I listened to Cullen‘s earlier book, Columbine, a month or so ago. They‘re very different, and they really show how much the issue of gun violence and school shootings has changed in the past decade. 6y

stacybmartin @readtheworld I haven‘t read Columbine yet but it‘s definitely on my TBR! 6y

Obsidio - The Illuminae Files: | Amie Kaufman

pick

This was a fun and thrilling conclusion to the series. The audio book is really amazing. The end is a little sappy, but that's okay. Plus, in the wake of #marchforourlives, a book about teenagers saving the world doesn't seem far fetched.

Our family was well represented at the West Palm Beach #marchforourlives yesterday. @Ambrosnazzy went with her husband and son, who had a very Litsy-appropriate sign.

Playing with Fire: The 1968 Election and the Transformation of American Politics | Lawrence O'Donnell

Show this to anyone who says high school kids can‘t make change. Those Parkland students paid attention to 1960s history in class! Or they‘re just THAT fed up with political establishment figures, just like the Senator‘s daughter mentioned above. #marchforourlives

Columbine | Dave Cullen

Starting this this weekend feels very appropriate. I'll be honest, this one has been on my shelf for a long while, and I've been a little nervous to read it. I was a junior in high school when this tragedy happened, and it profoundly affected me. The fact that it has been repeated so many times since then is shameful. #marchforourlives

MicheleinPhilly I pulled it off my shelves a month ago but it‘s still sitting on a chair. I haven‘t been able to bring myself to crack it open. 😔 7y

TheBookgeekFrau A most enlightening read and actually quite “good” (for lack of a better word) 7y

Jabberwocky Me too to all of that. My copy is staring me in the face but I just don‘t know if I‘m ready. 7y

Reecaspieces Great book 7y

BookNAround Sue Klebold‘s memoir is a really interesting companion piece to this one. Totally heartbreaking but very well done. 7y

I'm The Biggest Thing in the Ocean! | Kevin Sherry

Someone snapped this photo of children‘s book author/illustrator Kevin Sherry at the DC #marchforourlives & he shared it on his Instagram. I love him & I love this picture. I love his unabashed ownership of the term “Millennial,” and the way his sign is both a promise and a threat. It‘s double-sided, & the reverse reads, “No Excuses. Ban Assault Rifles Now.”

BarbaraTheBibliophage Indeed. If all those who marched vote in local, state, and national elections we will have big changes! 7y

The Marches: A Borderland Journey between England and Scotland | Rory Stewart

Our friend Mike caught this one at the #MarchForOurLives in Lancaster, PA today. We had thousands out marching in our little city. (Wish I could have been there, but I had a class to take that was required for my license.)
