UNYPL in 2012: The Walkers
It’s a unique moment when I come across the walking readers. I see them suddenly, and then there are just a few strides left to take the picture candidly. Most of the time I catch up with them after they’ve already passed me by, to find out what they’re reading. Here they are from the past year, the walkers of the Underground Library:
- “A Clash of Kings,” by George R.R. Martin
- “Devil’s Gate,” by Clive Cussler and Graham Brown
- “The Casual Vacancy,” by J. K. Rowling
- “Mary, Mary,” by James Patterson
- “Madame Bovary,” by Gustave Flaubert
- “The Summer Book,” by Tove Jansson
- “The Mother-Daughter Book Club,” by Heather Vogel Frederick
- “Savor the Moment,” by Nora Roberts
- “Playing for Pizza”, by John Grisham
- “The Proposal,” by Mary Balogh
