Jennifer: "I'm a master's student in human rights. I focus on forced migration and the challenges refugees face. I'm reading this book for school. What's interesting is that this topic has hit the news with the European crisis but it's been happening for years and years. It's not necessarily put in perspective with how many refugees are in Turkey, Jordan & Lebanon. If more countries took in refugees the crisis would be solved by now. I grew up as a Navy brat. My mom was in the reserves and became a commander. She was deployed at the height of the US presence in the Middle East. Wars and the effects of war have always interested me. I'd love to work in urban settings with refugees and make sure they have access to work and education." Reading: Forced Migration Law & Policy. @jenn_um #humanrights #education #refugees #newyork #manhattan #subwaybookreview [1]

Amelia: "I like that the story is about bicycles. Milly Molly Mandy is a girl who wants to learn how to ride a bike. She lives in a little white cottage with her dog Toby and Topsy the cat. I can already ride a balance bike." Reading Milly Molly Mandy by Joyce Lankester Brisley. #kidsbook #millymollymandy #bike #books #sbrnewyork #brooklyn #newyork #subwaybookreview [2]

Jacques: "I just came from the library. I'm writing a science fiction novel so I have a lot of that genre on me for inspiration. The character in my novel is in a place that's very different from their home. Ryszard Kapuściński is one of my heroes. He was a very lonely spirit and was more at home in other counties than his own. He wrote a lot about Africa. I've saved up money and have a list of countries I want to go to. I spun the wheel and landed on Rwanda. I'm actually on my way home right now to buy the ticket before I chicken out. What do I wish for in 2016? To get out of the comfort zone and to keep pushing." @jacquadious #happynewyear #subwaybookreview [3]

Terrorist Assemblages; Homonationalism in Queer Times by Jasbir K. Puar. Molly: "I gave him this book as a romantic gesture. I've done that multiple times with other people before, but he knows that. I'm really bad at separating my academic life from my love life." Kareem: "We often read together but yes, you caught me reading to her just now. The book is a nonfiction piece about how nations have come to claim gay rights for their own agendas, which are often complicit in imperialist projects. It's a favorite book of Molly's. We share what we study and think about it together often." @mollytheo @discoasos #newyork #nyc #subwaybookreview #bookreview #subway #bookloversunite #author #jasbirpunar #homonationalism #gayrights #politics #readingisawesome #loveisawesome [4]

Ara que s'acosta Sant Jordi recuperem el projecte de l'alemanya Uli Beutter Cohen Subway Book Review, en què descriu els usuaris del metro de Nova York en funció dels llibres que llegeixen durant els seus trajectes suburbans.

En el seu blog [5] hi ha recollit una extensa col·lecció de ressenyes escrites i publicades a Facebook, Instagram i Twitter a partir d'allò que li expliquen els novaiorquesos que es troba al metro. No només relaten les seves impressions del llibre, sinó també l'impacte que té en les seves vides.

Si us calen idees per a aquesta diada, no deixeu de fer-hi un cop d'ull.
