In this occasion, I will tell you somewhere in the city of Bandung which is a favorite among the young people. It is PITIMOSS. The largest libraries in the city. Why the largest? Though the place is not as big as the central library. It said large nor as very much collection book or visitors who very abundant. But because the vision of the founders of libraries is very admirable. Their vision: Making Reading For Fun and Cheap Habits.

I became a member in PITIMOSS since the beginning of 2013. Being a member  in PITIMOSS also very easy. Books that I waited always there. But sometimes there are books that really populer and in other people borrow huhu. Studying at SMAN 3 Bandung increasingly make me closer with PITIMOSS. So certainly if there is free time, I always stop by to visit PITIMOSS.
