I just learned, to my great delight, that this beautiful small town I moved to in March has a library with an awesome website, and they deliver on a monthly basis to shut-ins like me! I surfed their website and placed no less than nine books on hold. Four of the books were delivered to me last week and I'm reveling in actually holding them, smelling them, reading them....I've been literally starving for a good read . So happeee!!
I started on Beloved by Toni Morrison but have abandoned it for now (later), and went to a book of powerful poetry by Arielle Twist. Now, I'm reading Warlight by Michael Andaatje, one of my favorite authors. I've also delved into Small Change, which is a collection of short stories by Elizabeth Hay, another favorite of mine. Waiting in the wings for next month's delivery are A Complicated Kindness by Miriam Toews,(recommended by my bestie), Carl Hare's A Weathering of Years, A Student of Weather by Elizabeth Hay, and two books for the artist in me - A Map of Glass by Jane Urquhart and The Last Supper about Leonardo de Vinci by Ross King.
Happy reading, book lovers!
My best to you, Laurie

@artist01 Happy for you to have found this out! It sounds like a great resource for you, and you'll become fast friends with the staff in no time! And not to mention looking forward to books in the future.

How long do you get to have them?
