    I know Mulholland Drive is a real place, but I can't not associated it with the movie and the dreamlike vibe of this book...

    About what percentage of the books you read are ones you own?

    Since we're about halfway through the year, I was looking at some of my reading stats, and I realized that less than 1% of the books I've read this year are books that I own.

    About what percentage of books that you read do you own, and why do you think that this number is what it is, high or low?

    Personally, I think I'm easily drawn in by the shiny, so if something strikes my interest, I end up immediately checking to see if it's available in a digital format from one of my libraries and either start reading it right away, or put it on hold. Then I'm at the whims of my incoming holds. The deadline of books being due also motivates me to actually read them, versus when books are in my house or digitally purchased, I often take them for granted, and then they languish for years 😬

    Through different characters, we see their life struggles and how a visit to a municipal library changes them for the better.

    Honestly, I only liked two stories: the first and the fourth. I identified with both to some extent, and they felt very realistic. I also liked that the characters in the different chapters knew each other. The problem with the rest: they were too idealistic, bordering on fantastical, extremely positive and hopeful, with ordinary stories that could have been resolved differently, and somewhat boring. Furthermore, there were many comments and thoughts from characters that I didn't like.
