I love libraries. I think that they are a really amazing public resource that I wish I used more. I mean, think about it. We have these buildings, full of so many different kinds of books that we can borrow for free…unless, of course, you are like me and ALWAYS seem to have late fines. It occurred to me a few months back that I have been throwing away money on books that are read only once, then left to collect dust on my bookshelf. I realized that I needed to put an end to my book buying habit, and start taking advantage of all the books my library has to offer.
So, today I went to the library.
Now, I’m not the kind of girl who can check out stacks of books at a time. I find that overwhelming (especially when I’m likely to accrue late fines on most of the books I check out). So, today I got one book. I had been hearing about this book on other blogs for a while and was very interested in reading it.
After reading the first page, I already know that I’m going to like it.
So…who wants to be in charge of reminding to return it in 3 weeks?
You might return it, but you’ll want to buy a ticket to Paris next.
