For anyone who would like to, we’ll be creating our very own LL keepsakes. It can be anything you want - a wall hanging, a pencil cup, a little box to store your bookplates. Check out #bulletin_board in the Discord for project ideas and printables. 🎨

The mods drew inspiration from our Community Picks! With Raspberry Green (Howl's Moving Castle), White Pear (Their Eyes Were Watching God), and Foxtrot (The Long Way to a Small, Angry Planet), each cup will bring with it memories of the books we've read together. 💖🥲📚

I have had the quote “the idea that some lives matter less is the root of all that is wrong with the world” lodged in my brain ever since @lifes_library introduced me to Paul Farmer in Mountains Beyond Mountains. It’s a good one.

Beautiful tribute from @johngreen: “Profound health inequities persist, and Paul Farmer was never satisfied with progress in a world where such injustice persisted. We shouldn’t be, either. Instead, we must carry forward his legacy.” washingtonpost.com/opinions/…

Opinion | How Paul Farmer helped save the lives of millions of people

The co-founder of Partners in Health, who died on Monday at age 62, simply did not accept the idea that inequality of health-care access is natural or inevitable.

Paul said “do what you love, but commit to it over the long-term — measured by decades, not years — and do it with many others.”

We are devastated to hear about Dr. Paul Farmer's death, and so grateful for his life and his work. We send our love to his family, to @PIH, and all who knew him. Thank you, Dr. Farmer.
