My local library (no, not Ellensburg), has been open to the public since the first week of July.

Yesterday was my first venture in since the closure (where I had greedily filled two totes with tomes and tunes to tide me over for a little while).

Thankful for the curbside service, the mystery bags and the online collection, there’s something to be said for walking into a serene space soaring with so many stories and possibilities.

Surprisingly enough, I only checked out three books…for now.

Dear reader, are your libraries open yet?
