The Green Center Library

The Green Center recycling center has an extensive collection of media available for adoption. Books, 78RPM records, DVD and Blu-Ray discs and home schooling textbooks. There is entire shelf dedicated to cookbooks. There are lots of bibles. Volunteer Angelika Weber has kept it all in good order. Books are arranged alphabetically by author. I've taken several boxes of my own books to the Center when I feel the need to declutter.

Not your average bestsellers

Unlike a regular bookstore, some of the books are a bit unusual. For example this "How To" guide.

https://flic.kr/p/2mFVFGN I did read this, but wouldn't classify the methods described as a "lost art".

Something for the Fox Viewers

What is unusual about this collection of books is that book at the the bottom is Emily Post's book on Etiquette. Etiquette will useful for anyone exposing the views expressed in the other books, especially at the Thanksgiving dinner. Glenn Beck and Bill O'Reilly share the honor of being thrown off the Fox Network.

Local Authors

This book was written about a home in New Ipswich. It was self-published and could have used the skills of copy editor. I grew tired of reading about the author having goose-bumps on his goose-bumps. However in spite of the writing style it is plausible that the house is haunted. The Haunted happenings came up with a conversation with a friend that lived in the house after the Lavoie family had left. However this person didn't mind the ghostly happenings.

Recommendations

One day while I was volunteering at the Center, Professor Paul Bush our local Bibliophile did an impromptu book review. He was pleased to have found this title from Joe Ide, which debuts Isaiah Quintabe the fictional detective "IQ". There is always something for everyone at the Green Center.

A Postscript

I was approached today by a friend who told me she enjoyed reading about the Green Center. There is much to tell and this post is for her.
