Even Carrie Bradshaw talks about the love of the library! The idea of the book has a whole life of it's own, someone somewhere has had this book before it's sorta cool to think about!
I just love it at the library, and I don't understand why anyone would want to BUY a book when you could go check out a book from the library for free!! I've started a new series, the in death series by J.D. Robb aka Nora Roberts. I'm obsessed with reading these books and since last Tuesday, I have now read/listened (depending on what copy the library had available) The first 4 books in the series!! You figure, I just saved $45.00 alone in "renting" these books!!
Oh, and I have a new secret love of my life, Rourke... I know he's out there somewhere, Irish accent and all......

I should totally get in bed, but instead I am reading about your new obsession! And I have and always will LOVE the library! James makes fun of me all the time for loving how it smells!! And if you find Roarke, I'd love to meet him!!!
I REALLY shouldn't admit this, but some of us are germaphobes and can't stand the thought of what the last person was doing with their hands before picking up the same book. Yuck! Weird I know, but I just can't get past it.
As a kid, one of my fondest memories is going to the library. Story time, taking a tote bag to get books. It is something I have passed on to my children as well. The germophobe comment? Well, I am quite a germophobe myself. I have a terrible time eating from salad bars or potlucks. But tons of people have touched the books in bookstores too. And germs only live on surfaces for 24-48 hours, if that. I figure by the time I'm reading, it's safe. In 30 years I'm quite confident I have never gotten sick from a trip to the library.
Keep saving money and enjoying your time there!
