I just finished reading your book: Infidel. I couldn't put it down. I read it on the bus, I read it at work when I wasn't supposed to, I read it standing up and walking down the sidewalk (Which, in truth, is not very wise).
As a young white woman who has grown up in Canada, your story both humbled, and deeply inspired me. I'm eighteen years old with an interest in politics, human rights, and the future of our world. Never before has something moved me this much in the direction of wanting to make a difference. Your book has made me think, even reconsider some of my attitudes on the multicultural policies that my own country hold.
I cannot thank you enough for sharing your story. I wish I could write more but there is so much that I don't know how to say. (And the chances of you reading this are pretty slim).
Inspired and sincerely,
Paige

Sarah Palin's facebook password
It's summer again, so I'm going to try to blog ERR-Y-DAY.
Except the weekends. I'm going to blog every weekday.
AND MAKE MONEY~
(I've already made 90 whole cents. HOLY SHIT. /sarcasm)
So, I work at the library right?
I put all the books away after you people return them.
Sometimes, books are arranged in funny ways
LIKE TODAY:
The fiction (Not-Real : DD ) books are arranged by author's last name.
Sometimes I'll get a really trashy author who's last name starts with the same three letters as a famous classic author (This may be deliberate, since most trashy author names are pseudonyms anyways)
AT ANYRATE:
Today I picked out a book called "Ravaged by a Viking"
Now, along with being completely historically inaccurate (the title should have read more like "Raped and Pillaged by a viking" amirtie?) This novel was obviously very very trashy.
They used the word 'ravaged', suuuuuper trashy.
Anyways, as it turns out, this novel goes right next to Charles dickens' classic novel: Great Expectations.
Buhahahhahahaheheh.
