It feels like forever since I’ve done one of these!  It’s probably been around a month or so, but it feels like a lot has happened since then.

• These libraries are amazing and it makes me want to go on a trip where all I do is visit libraries.
• This list of people that inspire Americans is interesting and not surprising.  Well, for the most part.  I’ll admit, there were a couple that surprised me.  But overall, it wasn’t a surprise.
• These photographs are interesting and they make me want to take a road trip!
• I really like the parts of history that we never learn in school, and these moments from US history are really interesting.
• If you like romance novels, this list of critical texts about the genre is worth checking out.
• On a related note, here are 10 reasons why people read romance novels.
• I agree that there is something really cool about not finishing a book.  I feel like it’s made me a better reader.
• Also, it is good to weed through your TBR every once in a while.  Sometimes, I end up realizing that I no longer want to read that one book that sounded really cool from 3 years.
• As someone who’s short, I can confirm that having a step stool is a pretty important thing to have.  It saves me from climbing a lot of counters.
• This Harry Potter-inspired luggage makes me want to start traveling.
• I love these photographs taken inside of musical instruments.
• These notes describing things at a thrift shop are really funny.
• Libraries are amazing, magical places.
• This is a really cool project– conserving sounds like rotary phones and typewriters.
• It was fun to see the history behind these commonly used phrases.
• This art installment looks pretty cool.
• The Polaroid OneStep Camera goes digital.
• I really like this post about romance novels not being junk food.
• This open letter to fanfiction really speaks to me.
• I think I’m going to have to try all of these coffees.
• I’m glad I’m not the only one who checks out cookbooks from the library.  It’s a great way to see if I like a cookbook enough to buy a copy.
• I don’t read a lot of webcomics, but I think I might check some of these out.
• If you like all things pumpkin and Trader Joe’s, I have a list for you.
• Here is a map with the food your state hates the most…except some of these aren’t actually foods.  I’m looking at you, Virginia and Illinois.  I’m sorry, I just don’t get why dabbing pizza grease with a napkin and biting string cheese are considered food.  I’d understand really greasy pizza but biting string cheese?  I’m just confused.

That’s all for today, and I hope you have a great week!
