One of the first things on my list to do after we move is get a library card and I am so excited! I didn't set one up for our temporary housing because I didn't even think I'd have enough evidence to prove I was living there. It was temporary.
When I was in Chicago a couple weeks ago, I picked up a few books with my still valid library card and it was wonderful! So wonderful! (My sister is graciously returning them for me.)
Both books I selected were quick reads and they were so good. The one that is really sticking with me is The Nightingale by Kristin Hannah. I cannot stop thinking about it. It's historical fiction based on what French women did during WWII. It's incredibly inspiring and incredibly sad. I did a lot of crying during the book. I guess I'm a pretty crier because Mike came downstairs, said hello, had a small conversation. Then he touched my face and asked, "Why is your face wet?" "Because I'm crying."
I highly recommend it.
I've been hearing rave reviews about We Are Never Meeting In Real Life by Samantha Irby and I've had it on multiple hold lists for months. I was very excited and surprised when I received a notification that it was my turn to read it digitally! I quickly finished up some budgeting work and started reading!
