Where do you go first? |
Sadly I go to the children section, because I am usually checking out books for my niece and nephew to assist with their summer learning preparations for the coming school year. It's sad because I don't go for myself. I have several shelves full of DIY and Cook books that we don't use often enough to keep them around (not since before 2002, and one Debbie McC. cookbook I bought in 2008 - Cedar Cove style) - because we have rented since we sold our home in Illinois back in 2002. And w/my Nook, I can access several books at one time mostly for free w/o fear of forgetting to take it back on time.
I remember a time when I use to love going and sitting for hours in the library, reading homework books, landscape magazines, enjoying the library grounds, meeting up w/friends and scanning weird books, etc. Now it's just too hot to really want to go sit for hours in someone else s AC just to get back in my car and drive back home (lately it's been in the low 100's by 9 AM, and in the low 90's by 9 PM).
