My Favourite Books 我最喜欢的书 Jo Usmar is a writer for Cosmopolitan and co-author of the This Book Will series of lifestyle books. Here she picks her top reads. 乔·乌斯马是《时尚》杂志的一位作家，也是介绍生活方式的This Book Will系列的合著者。以下是她推荐的最佳读物。 Matilda 玛蒂尔达 Roald Dahl 罗尔德·达尔 I once wrote a paper on the influence of fairy tales on Roald Dahl's writing and it gave me a new appreciation for his strange and delightful worlds. Matilda's battles with her cruel parents and the bossy headmistress, Miss Trunchbull, are equally funny and frightening, but they're also aspirational. 我曾经写过一篇关于童话故事对罗尔德·达尔写作的影响的论文，让我对他的奇怪而又令人愉悦的世界产生了新的认知。玛蒂尔达与残忍的父母和专横的女校长特伦奇布尔小姐的斗争同样有趣又可怕，但也同样鼓舞人心。 After Dark 天黑以后 Haruki Murakami 村上春树 It’s about two sisters-Eri, a model who either won’t or can’t stop sleeping, and Mari, a young student. In trying to connect to her sister, Mari starts changing her life and discovers a world of diverse ”night people” who are hiding secrets. 这是关于两姐妹爱丽和玛丽的故事，永远想睡觉的模特爱丽和年轻的学生玛丽。玛丽在试图联系她姐姐的过程中，开始改变自己的生活，发现了一个由各种各样的“夜猫子”组成的世界，他们都在隐藏着秘密。 Gone Girl 消失的爱人 Gillian Flynn 吉莉安·弗琳 There was a bit of me that didn't want to love this when everyone else on the planet did, but the horror story is brilliant. There's tension and anxiety from the beginning as Nick and Amy battle for your trust. It's a real whodunit and the frustration when you realise what's going on is horribly enjoyable. 当这个星球上的其他人都喜欢这本书的时候，我其实有一点不喜欢，但这个恐怖故事很精彩。尼克和艾米为获取你的信任互相争斗，从一开始就充满了紧张和焦虑。这是一部真正的侦探小说，当你意识到正在发生的事情会让你感到沮丧，却又相当享受。 The Stand 末日逼近 Stephen King 斯蒂芬·金 This is an excellent fantasy novel from one of the best storytellers around. After a serious flu outbreak wipes out 99.4% of the world's population, a battle unfolds between good and evil among those left. Randall Flagg is one of the scariest characters ever. 这是一本优秀的奇幻小说，作者是世界上最会讲故事的人之一。在一场严重的流感疫情夺去了全球99.4%的人口之后，在剩下的人之间展开了一场正义与邪恶的战争。兰德尔·弗拉格是有史以来最恐怖的角色之一。

I have a special place in my heart for libraries. I have for as long as I can remember. I was always an enthusiastic reader, sometimes reading up to three books a day as a child. Stories were like air to me and while other kids played ball or went to parties, I lived out adventures through the books I checked out from the library, 图书馆在我心中的地位很特殊，从我记事起就是这样。我一直是一个热心的读者，小时候每天看三本书。故事对我来说就像空气一样不可或缺，当其他孩子打球或参加派对时，我在从图书馆借来的书中体验冒险， My first job was working at the Ukiah Library when I was 16 years old. It was a dream job and I did everything from shelving books to reading to the children for story time. 我的第一份工作是在Ukiah图书馆工作，当时我16岁。这份工作梦寐以求，从上架书籍到给孩子们读故事，我做了所有的事情。 As I grew older and became a mother, the library took on a new place and an added meaning in my life. I had several children, and books were our main source of entertainment. It was a big deal for us to load up and go to the local library, where my kids could pick out books to read or books they wanted me to read to them. 长大后成为一名母亲，图书馆在我的生活中占据了一个新的位置，增加了意义。我有几个孩子，书籍是我们的主要快乐来源。对我们来说，带上食物去当地的图书馆是件大事，我的孩子们可以在那里挑选要读的书或者想让我读给他们听的书。 I always read, using different voices, as though I were acting out the stories with my voice and they loved it! It was a special time to bond with my children and it filled them with the wonderment of books. 我总是用不同的声音阅读，就好像我在用自己的声音表演故事，他们喜欢这样！这是一个与我的孩子们建立联系的特殊时刻，让他们感受到书的奇妙。 Now, I see my children taking their children to the library and I love that the excitement of going to the library lives on from generation to generation. 现在，我看到我的孩子们带着他们的孩子去图书馆，我喜欢去图书馆的兴奋感代代相传。 As a novelist, I've found a new relationship with libraries. I encourage readers to go to their local library when they can't afford to purchase a book. I see libraries as a safe haven for readers and writers, a bridge that helps put together a reader with a book. Libraries, in their own way, help fight book piracy and I think all writers should support libraries in a significant way when they can. Encourage readers to use the library. Share library announcements on your social media. Frequent them and talk about them when you can. 作为一名小说家，我与图书馆建立了新的关系。我鼓励读者在买不起书的时候去当地的图书馆。我把图书馆看成是读者和作家的避风港，这是一座桥梁，帮助读者和书相连接。图书馆以自己的方式帮助打击图书盗版，我认为所有的作家都应该在可能的情况下大力支持图书馆。鼓励读者使用图书馆，在社交媒体上共享图书馆公告，经常使用它们，并在可能的时候谈论它们。
