Hey sophie .. I agree with you .. We should do something about this... Maybe , we can have an event , where all the attendees .. can come with one book which they can share with others , over a cup of coffee and can get into engaging conversations with each other .. .. If the attendees are fine , maybe we can take a group membership of any library ( i dont know if there is any good one in beijing) .. in beijing .. .. suggest , we should put some thoughts on this page by others as well
