Un bruit dans les murs

Horreur et jeunesse… un deux pour un!
Horreur : couverture noire, regard apeuré.
Jeunesse : histoire impliquant des enfants, illustrations s’apparentant aux bandes dessinées.

Buying a used book means giving it a new life, immersing yourself in history, and treating yourself to a moment of relaxation.

When I think of all the books I still have to read, I am certain that I will forever be happy. JULES RENARD

Reading promotes concentration, memory, stress reduction and creativity,
Opening a book is as much about immersing yourself in your own world as it is about opening up to the outside world.
I’m Sylvie Goudreau, founder of SG Livres Usagés.
I have always loved reading and leafing through books from all eras and all genres.
Each book fed my imagination, as I let myself be carried away by a story that became my own as I flipped the pages. It’s a powerful way to connect with yourself and with others.
Jacques Salomé once said: “A book always has two authors: the one who writes it and the one who reads it”.
My intention is to share this great inventory of well loved books inviting you to take special moments of peace and quiet.
A journey to other lands at the flip of a page.
My goal is to bring books to new life and pass on my love of reading.
Happy shopping and good finds!
Sylvie

Trouver sa mission : réflexion ou mode d’emploi?
13 September 2023
Après avoir lu ce livre, je dirais un peu des deux! Mon but n’est pas de faire un résumé de ce livre, je vais plutôt vous partager mon ressenti face à ce que j’ai lu.
Réflexion quand on ne trouve plus aucun sens à notre travail et/ou à notre vie en général. Mode d’emploi quand on n’a aucune idée des étapes à franchir pour avoir une idée de ce que pourrait être notre mission de vie.
Pourquoi un livre plutôt qu’un autre?

Aujourd’hui, j’ai choisi ce livre parce que je me suis sentie attirée par la couleur de sa couverture, un orangé vif, vibrant, éclatant, qui me rappelle les couleurs d’automne qui commencent à tapisser nos arbres.
