Happiness for Beginners by Katherine Center
"Let's think of three good things that happened today. I'll go first: I finished reading Happiness for Beginners. It's the story of a divorced woman whose much-younger brother talks her into signing up for a wilderness survival course. I loved the characters and their story arcs. If you like rom-coms and stories about getting lost, this is the book for you."
--Stella, George Reynolds Library

Library Stories!
"I'm visiting from out of town, and I wanted to share some positive feedback, for the higherups, the board of trustees, whoever. I needed to use the computer and the young man said I could, and I also used the bathroom. I just want to say that this is the sanest public space I've ever been in in my life. People of all types are welcome here. You're really doing great work."
