A Summer Trip with Books

A Summer Trip with Books The hot summer could be cool in another way!   2021.07.05   Spring, summer, fall, and winter. Summer has come again to tell us that half of the year has passed. In Korea, summer beings in June and lasts until August. The scorching sunlight could blind us, but most Koreans long for summer throughout the year. Students and office workers all wait for their summer vacation. Summer has a surprisingly charming point everybody loves as the season of relaxation.

BookTuber’s Pick: A Book to Chill Your Summer

BookTuber’s Pick: A Book to Chill Your Summer   2021.07.05     I’m taking an early summer vacation. It’s still June, but the ground heats up hot during the day and stays heated until night ? it is summer, and nobody can doubt it. Sitting out on the terrace, I hear grasshoppers chirping. And I start to think, why are summer nights so special? So many good memories were from summer nights. I once lay down inside a sleeping bag with my friend and exclaimed when we spotted a shooting star at the same time. Also, I remember the moment when my heart palpitated as I saw the sunrise on the way back home from a night movie ? it was also a summer night.I let my feelings take me over, smelling the misty droplets in the air. Thinking about how to spend this special time, I took out the book I brought from home. There is a rhino and a penguin putting their foreheads together on the cover of this thin book. The ...
