The Happiness a book can bring...

Maxine recently received a book she had long been waiting to read!

I believe it was 2017 when Maxine first called the library to make a request. She had recently read a Nora Roberts book and decided to make it her mission to read them all. She brought me a list and so it began! at first it was easy to find them, but as the list got shorter, one became a problem. Published in 1984, "Promise me Tomorrow" by Nora was not an easy find! Book sellers on Amazon wanted $700.00+ for the thin paperback! Thankfully, the interlibrary loan department at Winnefox located a loanable copy. It was requested first in March 2020, then again in December 2020. It was delivered to Maxine March 29. 2021. The book came from the Hoover Library in Westminster Maryland. See what a library can do!

Of course Maxine had it read in less then a week...
