Library Haul 17-10-2020
Afternoon all!
Happy weekend all and a happy welcome to my new Library #3 Haul! It was time to go again!
I am so happy that the libraries are still open. Really, 3 weeks ago I thought everything would be closed very soon, but so far only restaurants/bars/sport stuff is closed. Thankfully libraries are, for now still open. Yay! New books!
When we came to the library there was a huge line of people, and we were worried we would be standing there for a while as the line just didn’t seem to move at all. Then someone from the library came to us and ask if we wanted to bring back books, I said yes, and also borrowing, and we could follow the guy. Apparently the line is for people who want to study at the library! I wouldn’t study at the library if I had to wait in line (and also register and set a time slot and whatever else). Funnily, when I walked out of the library later the same people were still in the line. 😛 It just isn’t moving.
The library was once again in Corona-mode with extra guidelines, the new books weren’t downstairs but now on tables on the respective floors so I had to do some questing to find books. But I don’t mind. I love that. Plus, I am so delighted that everyone now needs to wear a mask. I am no longer the only one. No more strange or aggressive/angry looks. Yes!
I had fun questing for books, and I was even more excited when I found plenty of new English Children/YA books on the shelves.
This time I have more normal books over graphic novels! I cannot wait get reading, I found quite some books I was hoping to read one day (Wink, Downstairs Girl, Gargantis, Pip Bartlett (which I refuse to buy because the cover is ugly these days)).
STATS: 12 books. 3 non-fiction, 2 graphic novels, 7 fiction.
