Welcome to the common place, where Elise & Vicky discuss and dissect books, words, and life in general.
A commonplace book is a collection of knowledge. It is a journal filled with everything from quotations, observations, and citations to formulas, facts, and figures–anything that’s worth remembering from anything one has read, heard, or seen. In a way it is a scrapbook, commemorating and keeping track of the things we have learned and the places we have been, figuratively or literally, via the media that passes through our lives: books, articles, poems, movies, songs, blogs, and so on. Commonplace books are kept by readers, writers, scholars, and students of schools and of life.
Good luck!! I’m practically walking around the house with my kindle in hand trying to beat my goal. 50 books in one year feels like so few in hindsight…
