The countdown is
on… one more week until Thanksgiving! And what a different one it will be for
many of us without those we love best sharing the day with us. Being the hardy
New Englanders we are, we surely will all make the best of the day. We two have
been invited to serve as “friends” and “substitute grandparents” with a
favorite local family and feel very blessed. We, at the library, count all of
you as part of our blessings and wish you the very best.
The Pandemic continues… Our little library is now open on Wednesdays (1-5, seniors 1-2) and Saturdays (10-12) and you do not need an appointment. We ask that you wear your mask, use the sanitizer, and keep your distance. We are also continuing our “porch side” pick ups… return your bag and we will refill it! You are also welcome to email us with your requests… jkelso@rumneylibrary.org for children’s materials, and sturbyne@rumneylibrary.org for everything else.
New from John Grisham… A Time for Mercy (2020)…
New from Yaa Gyasi… Transcendent Kingdom (2020)… Many of you enjoyed Ms Gyasi’s earlier book, Homecoming. This latest offering is about a Ghanaian family living in our south as they deal with race in America and reckon spiritually and intellectually with a legacy of unmanageable loss… exquisitely written.
New to us… Wilderness,
The Gateway to the Soul, Spiritual Enlightenment Through Wilderness by
Scott Stillman (2018)… Mr.
Stillman reminds us that there are still unspoiled, untamed places around us…
places that can help us see who we truly are. And how fortunate we all are to
live where we do!
Wishing you all a
good week… See you at the Library! Susan and the Ladies
