I’ve been delivering library books to 2 ladies since late March. At first it was quite challenging to pick out books for them as the libraries weren’t generally open, and I found browsing the online catalogue on behalf of someone else a difficult way to choose books! My last couple of visits have been much more satisfying as I’ve been able to browse the shelves. Today I was pleased to spot a new Elizabeth Chadwick book for one of my ladies who’s a fan of historical fiction, and picked out a nice, light family saga for the other lady.

I had a nice chat on the doorstep with each lady.
