Public library offers fiction and nonfiction reads

A radio announcement informed us that April 26 is National Remember Your First Kiss Day. Nice. Amidst the bluster, posturings, and general gnashing of teeth along the old campaign trail (let alone the overall state of the world), how agreeable to recall that small but grand moment when love and all of life lay waiting before you.

This moment of repose brought to you by your library. As well as new books.
