It's cold outside... more book reading time!

 Whew! Hopefully, the temperature increases from this freezing and below freezing spell.

In the mean time, cold temperatures mean more opportunity for book reading... right? That's what we think.

Our New Arrival Cart is primarily full of Nonfiction books (History, Self Help, Current Events, Self Help, and Religious/Spirituality) and a few Fiction books (Sci-fi/Fantasy and Mystery/Suspense/Thriller).
