Hello readers! For this week’s Book Blogger Hop, we are going to discuss Little Free Libraries. Do you guys use Little Free Libraries?

Check out my Book Blogger Hop Masterlist to see more Book Blogger Hop posts I’ve done!

If you’ve never heard of Book Blogger Hop, it is hosted by Ramblings of a Coffee Addict. Each week a discussion topic is given and many book bloggers post based on that topic. New topics start on Friday and end the following Thursday. I personally always post my answers on Sundays.

August 15-21 – Do you visit and share books in Little Free Libraries in your area?

I do use Little Free Libraries. I can’t say I visit them on a super regular basis, but there’s one in my neighborhood that I stop by on occasion. Most of the time, I go when I’m taking a walk around the neighborhood or when I have a book to drop off.

The last time I visited, I found the first Percy Jackson book and brought it home for my daughter to try. I once even came across an ARC of Apple: Skin to the Core by Eric Gansworth, which I had been wanting to read for a while. I love that you never quite know what treasures you’ll come across. Sometimes it’s exactly the right book at exactly the right time!

I have a few books from the unhaul I did last month that I plan to drop off soon, although the one closest to my house is usually very full. Since there aren’t any local bookstores where I can sell them, I’m glad Little Free Libraries give them a new home.

One of my favorite things about the Little Free Library in my neighborhood is the addition of dog treats and a leash hook. The leash holder can be seen in the second pic below.

A few years ago, I did an event with Celadon where I put a copy of Kingdoms of Savannah into my local Little Free Library. I wish I could talk to whoever took the book. I’d love to know their thoughts.

Do you ever donate to Little Free Libraries? I have put dozens of books into Little Free Libraries over the years. I’d love to have one on my own property one day. They are around $300, so it might be a while before I try it.

Happy blogging and bookish adventures! 📚🦒✨
