I <3 Libraries

by Jenn on Monday, July 27, 2009

Books, books and more books. My month of August will be spent taking advantage of all the Toronto Libraries that I missed so dearly while living elsewhere. William Hutt? A force. The Tempest? Awesome. Slings & Arrows? Absolutely brilliant

Punning Pundit July 27, 2009 at 1:07 pm: I dunno. A “lie berry” is an awesome concept in a Harry Potteresq sort of way…

RDJ134 July 27, 2009 at 3:09 pm: I havent been is a Librarie for years, but i do read some Ebooks (well Ecomics probely dont count) from time to time. But i barley have time to read :( As i child i love to read too, LOTR, Charley and the Chocolat Factory, all the fanstasy stuff.
wonky73 July 27, 2009 at 6:01 pm: Woah..I have that exact same version of the complete works of Shakespeare. I am a huge fan. My favorite is Hamlet, which explains why most of the stories I write end up tragedies.
Ian MacIntyre July 28, 2009 at 12:55 am: Huzzah for ‘Slings & Arrows’! The finale of the third season was absolutely brilliant.
Shinmaryuu July 29, 2009 at 12:26 am: Pretty big fan of non-fiction and doing research on many-o-topic as of late it has been on glassware and clothing from the 40′s-70′s. My goal is sometime in retirement to know everything there is to know about used items found in thrift stores so i can become an appraiser and own my own antiques shop :).

That being said i really enjoy Shakespeare and poetry of all kinds. I also love a good bit of sci-fi, fantasy (including harry potter :D), and mythology. Mythology was actually my favorite elective class in school.

I used to spend many of hours in a library when i had my laptop doing research but without it i spend time in my own library of 1 bookshelf filled with amazon debt :D. I doesn’t help that the library assistant i had a crush on moved away j/k! :)
