Established in 2007 by the Leatherby Libraries, the Community of Readers is the summer reading program for Chapman University. This program is open to everyone who has borrowing privileges at the Leatherby Libraries and a current library account, including students, faculty, staff, and alumni. Members select books from the Leatherby Libraries and receive prizes upon submission of their first review. The only requirement is that books must be obtained through the Leatherby Libraries.

Johnny Got His Gun

Title: Johnny Got His Gun
Author: Dalton Trumbo
Call Number: PS3539.R928 J5 1988
Rating: Highly Recommended
Review: This book explores what it is like to have both your arms, legs, mouth, tongue, and eyes amputated from a bomb explosion in war, but still have the ability to think. Luckily this book is just fiction, but I am sure it happens to soldiers all the time. This book will make you cry and realize that before we decide to go to war with any nation that we should be prepared to live with these results on our conscience.
