Finding Good Books in Hell's Kitchen
Such a lovely day today, how could I do anything but go out and run errands outside. One of which had to be going to the Columbus Library to return a few books and pick up my latest stash of reserved books. Columbus Library (Tenth Avenue between 50th & 51st) is a sweet place, the nicest staff, and a few good books on the shelves but the best thing about the New York Library system has to be that you have access to every library in the city online ( http://leopac.nypl.org ) and can request books from wherever. You can keep up to 100 books/videos on a list of your own on their website and request up to 15 books/videos at a time.
What’s not to love about books?One of my favorite evening walks is up to Barnes & Noble on Broadway just north of the Lincoln Center. An evening of browsing books is as good as going to a movie any day. And you can buy one to take home if you can’t stop reading. This is the wrong thing to say so soon after Oscar night but never mind.
And because I was told yesterday that if you write anything for online reading it should be three blocks of text long (1-2 is too few; more than three is too many), I’ll just put this here to let you know. And see what you think of the theory while you’re at it.
