What if everybody read the same book?

OPB and Multnomah County Libraries are partnering to bring conversations from this year's Everybody Reads book into the news. As our community talks about  the book, we'd like to see the themes from the story through the lens of community members.

Could you see your life or part of your story in "The Girl Who Fell from the Sky"?  Or, if you haven’t yet read the book, can you relate to any of these questions? (Click on each question to respond).

 

OPB’s Public Insight Network (PIN) poses questions like this to help our reporters see the news from the perspectives of community members. When you share your story and become part of the PIN, you join a community of people across the state who bring their unique expertise and experience to our news coverage. OPB will feature Everybody Reads stories online, and possibly on the radio.
