Library books



Books and more books; just the other day I was in line at the grocery store when the person in front of me made a comment about the fact that no one really goes to the library anymore especially with e-readers around. I thought to myself, I love my library! I like the people that work there and I enjoy perusing the shelves for what seems like hours and hours. The library is not passé and in my opinion is more de rigueur than ever. I understand that e-books are great too but holding a book in your hand is nice. My library has a fairly large collection of e-readers but I still gravitate toward the book section. 


Here's a smattering of my latest library books.  The Elegant Universe (2nd from the top) won the Royal Society Prize for nonfiction in 2000. Brian Greene a physicist, seems to capture a wider crowd when he discusses the dimensions of the universe. Reminds me of Brian Cox who does a BBC series called the Wonders of the Universe. I happened to watch part of the video but will rent again to finish.
