Is there, any better place than.......

being surrounded by thousands and thousands of books. Okay, maybe I could think of one or two places but since I was a child I have always loved our local library. Until I recently found the website pinterest, there was no other place that inspired me more. It was a place that could open my mind up to so many different worlds. A way to escape and see something new without leaving the comfort of my home. Just within a few minutes of reading, my mind was whirled to another place or time...landing myself into a romance or murder mystery. I am so fortunate that almost everyday I get to enter this wonderful world of Victor Hugo, Tom Clancy, Nora Roberts, Barbara Park and Danielle Steele. Working at the library can be very dangerous for me, they give their workers a NO FINE library card. When they first told me this, I was like.."No Way?? For Real??" My library privilege was now promoted to a No Fine card. So as i am discharging books for customers, I have a little "Jill pile" (books I am taking home to read). Sometimes it seems as if i have my own mini library at my house. Needless to say, i love my job! Our county library is being torn down and being replaced with a shiny brand new "state of the art" Library. So our main branch is divided into two temporary locations. Here a re a few pics of our old library being torn down.

 Here is the new library being framed. Here is the front of the building... They say it will be another year until we will be in the new library, I'm sure it will be super! If you are a Mary Higgins Clark fan or a Mary Jane Clark fan, they both have new books out. I have to admit lately, I have been into the cheesy historical fiction romance books by Linda Lael Miller, romance with just  a little smut (not alot of smut)...just a little ;-) Tip of the day: if you hold a  romance book up in the air and drop it, it will always fall open to the smut section, BUTTTT why in the world would anyone want to purposely drop a book on the ground???
