Tales & Poems ... | Edgar Allan Poe

I have to read a horror book for my summer reading program. I dislike and never read horror so I figured Poe would at least be classic literature. The cover and pages of this book are pretty cool though.

This summer my library has a produce fridge where people can share veggies they have grown! I am terrible about not eating what I grow so I was so happy to drop zucchini and cukes off! 🥒📖🌞

My library's adult summer reading program includes a weekly raffle entry and, if you read a book in the genre of the week you receive a bonus prize of a $5 voucher for their book sale or their little Library Bookshop (with some of their nicer used books). I just got these from the bookshop with the $10 in vouchers I've earned so far. Quite the exciting haul!

Anyone else love board games?

LiteraryinPA I love board games including Wingspan!! 2y
MilesnMelodies @LiteraryinLawrence I didn't get the Playboy games much going up as an only child and my Mom hated them so I really appreciate the library doing this as I still have no one to play with. 2y

Any Littens live near Southwold, Suffolk England???
I could really use your help...

TheBookHippie I think both @andrew65 and @jenniferw88 are hours away but @Mitch should be close? 2y
jenniferw88 Yes, I'm in Dorset so miles away I'm afraid. 2y
Andrew65 I think @kezzlou85 lives in Suffolk, but don‘t know if that is near Southwold. I‘m in Yorkshire and close to 200 miles away. 2y

kezzlou85 @Andrew65 I'm in Norfolk so next county but it's over an hour away from me. 2y
Andrew65 @kezzlou85 Darn, got the wrong county 🤷‍♂️🫣 2y
kezzlou85 @Andrew65 it's next door so you were in the right area. 😊 2y
Andrew65 @kezzlou85 Should have known from our discussions about the Ruth Galloway Series. 2y
kezzlou85 @Andrew65 yep. Know many of the locations and live near a couple. Grimes graves from the last book was a fond memory from childhood. I've been down into the tunnels 2y
Mitch I‘m near! 2y
MilesnMelodies @Mitch So, I'm trying to find a card that was purchased in a shop in Southwold that has great sentimental value to me. I've emailed a few shops and the ones that have responded don't think they have it. I have a picture of it but it's hard to see. It's a white card with a peacock on it. 2y
MilesnMelodies @Mitch I could send you the picture if you might happen to be in a shop there sometime and could keep an eye out for it. 2y

I picked this up because the author is coming to my town in a few weeks. I wasn't sure I would enjoy it or get through it and I ended up reading the entire book in one night, which is rare for me. I've started his book poetry now and am looking forward to hearing him speak.

I alo received the pictured bookmarks as part of the Valentine's swap. As a nonfiction reader, they are perfect.

There's very little that's good in the crappy little town I live in. But somehow we have amazing libraries. I really didn't realize how unusually great they are until I started posting here and people would comment about some of the pictures I take of things offered from my libraries. The latest thing my library is doing is really amazing. A period panty, an entire bookshelf (it's cut off in the picture here) of free period products.

Soubhiville That‘s wonderful. What a great idea. 2y
MilesnMelodies They also added a table with free condoms STD info etc. 2y

IndoorDame Love this idea! I‘m always so grateful when libraries take on extra projects to serve the community (and then I think why wouldn‘t they, most of the projects aren‘t that expensive, and the libraries exist to promote access to vital resources people can‘t afford on their own) 2y

I really wanted to get through this book, I just couldn't take the author having to talk about herself every few minutes. I wish the editor would have made her focus on the content instead of writing a self important pseudo memoir.
