Have you heard it is National Library’s Lovers month? What better way to express to your loved one that may have a special connection with books. Although many opt for a card to express their feelings and trek the latest restaurant crawls for this month’s festivities, you could try something completely different in such a way to contribute through literature.
Ways you can celebrate:
Go visit a local library & Be adventurous
Check out the wonderful activities for the month and express your love for the library. This could be done simply by leaving a comment to show how you appreciate them or dropping a note with goodies.
Trying something new keeps our senses alert. The purpose of the month is to take advantage of all the library has to offer. So maybe try to learn a new language, request a cookbook or even travel the world through books.
These are just simple ways you can complement your local library. But you don’t have to let it just stop there. This is the month of love. Be creative because if you are a person who may have a hard time expressing yourself, then giving that special loved one a good read might be the perfect fit. Maybe you want to give someone a good laugh, you can send them a humorous read. Or perhaps you are the romantic, and choosing a romance novel would be a perfect fit for that special someone.
Use this month to celebrate many authors’ contributions that are great page-turners
