I had a chance to visit the public library without my kids, so browsed the shelves at leisure. Brought home a few books to read, but couldn’t possible carry (or find time for) all the ones that caught my eye, so I wrote down a list of titles to go back for later. Some of these are also from references listed in recent reads:
