Day 319: Three paperback books

I stopped by the library today to pick up a few books including David Guterson's Ed King (a modern Oedipus Rex).  I picked three random bestseller paperbacks off my own shelves before going. The library uses these books to raise money. I am always in support of libraries (I actually hold three different local library cards) and I am continually amazed at the service offered, especially by the Cincinnati Public Library--one of the best libraries in the world.  What I always wonder why at the library, though, is why more people don't take advantage of the free services.
