Today, for the first time in more than a year and a half, I went to an actual physical library. The library is usually very good at getting the ebooks I request but for some reason this one book I wanted they can't get as an ebook so I had to get it in physical form. I planned to just get this one book, I really should have known that I would leave with more than one; in the end I left with eight, which was a bit more than I expected. But they had interesting fantasy books originally written in German, lying right there on the table, and I couldn't resist.
It was very nice to be surrounded by so many books again! Unfortunately I still didn't feel completely comfortable just staying for longer and browsing (also I wanted to get home), but I should definitely check out this branch again.

Thanks for all the encouragement on my recent rec post, that was very nice and now I definitely want to try reccing things more regularly :)

Twenty years ago I went to the library with a shopping cart and came home with 20+ books, I no longer do that but it almost felt a little nostalgic :) Yeah, well-made displays are very tempting. Fortunately I had a spare bag.
