How good is it being able to visit a library again? Click and collect is a great thing but nothing beats walking into the library and checking out what's on the shelves.
It is - I've only been once since they re-opened to pick up, but it'll be good to browse when we want to!

I have never read a Jodi Picoult book before. I think I must be one of the very few. :-)

Diana wrote: "The 7½ Deaths of Evelyn Hardcastle - found in my street library this morning."This is something I need to read. I tried the audio book but got so confused about what was going on.
I bought copies of A Million Things by Emily Spurr and The Long Forgotten by David Whitehouse for my 'keeper' shelf.They arrived yesterday. It's still quite odd to receive parcels on the weekend, especially a Sunday. I felt bad for the driver.
