Daily Thoughts 04/29/2017

I checked the library Twitter and Facebook this morning.

On the way to work, I read some more of Tinkers by Paul Harding.

I checked the gift books and the displays.

I put some lists into Bookletters today.

I finished reading Tinkers by Paul Harding.  It had a nonstandard format to it with very little dialogue.  The writing was good, but not to my taste.

I started reading Borne by Jeff Vandermeer.  The story is both strange and deeply gripping.
