Myra here.
It’s Sunday! Time for us to share the books that have found us from out-of-the-way book shops, called to us from library book shelves and navigated their way into our hands and hearts. Here are a few of my book finds from Bras Basah, one of my favourite places here in Singapore.

Gathering Books 
The Joseph Campbell Masks of God is a tremendous work. The introduction and opening chapter is one of the finest summations of developmental psychology I’ve read. Campbell was a great thinker and writer. I’m sure you’ll enjoy it.
