Almost Makes Books Seem Like a Normal Part of Life

OM, I really appreciate your style of discussion that connects themes and casually incorporates the book links. Almost makes books seem like a normal part of life!

Also, Oberlausitzische Library Of Science? That's a magnificent place. If we could un-box and un-stack all our books, I think we'd need about that much shelf space...!

For those who might've seen my morning messages the other day, we were hoping, but not expecting, to get to Chicago before Milady's brother died, and we almost made it; he gave up the ghost last night while we were on the road in the middle of Illinois. My thoughts about Vince from the other morning:

And just so's this isn't off-topic, and I've meant to do this for months, here's an Amazon link to Vince's book, The Confidants (which link, if I did it right, should kickback to Ace). Milady says it's a fun, Chicago-based mystery.

Carry on, readers.
