The Captive Reader

It’s my (26th) birthday today and how better to begin the day than with a special edition of Library Lust!  Just as I did last year, I’m celebrating by posting my five favourite libraries from the last year (in no particular order):

   Happy birthday! Hope you’re celebrating in style! 26 is a good age (it better be, because I am going to be 26 in oooo…less than 3 months!). I think you’ll have a spectacular year! 🙂

   A very happy birthday, Claire. Enjoy your day. In fact, enjoy it all week if you can. The older I get, the longer I carry out the celebrations. I always appreciate your Library Lust posts and your thoughts as you bring them to us.

   Here’s to more birthdays – and more libraries!
