    Ahh…organization. You and I might be soulmates in the organization aisle. :-)

    Thanks for highlighting the books on infertility. We never know what difficult roads others are riding. Ride on!

    It’s a really cute one with a flower pot on top and stained glass books decorating the inside. Several Stephen King novels, a few text books. Could definitely use some books for older children. I borrowed the book about that rogue panda that Eats, Shoots & Leaves to show a punctuation-phobic family member. I’ll have to restock next time.

    The bag underneath has a note from someone giving away free cloth masks that they sewed! There are individually wrapped masks inside.

    I so love this. LFL’s have inspired so many other community building ideas (i.e., LF Pantries) and yet, they seem to be controversial in regards to gentrification. I personally think that anything that gets people out interacting with their community is a great thing. Evidence of LFL’s making a difference is when they’re full of books that people would WANT to read! Thanks Indiana!

    Yes, I found the TARDIS! Clearly what it needs is more sci-fi books.

    I’m honestly surprised there aren’t more “tardis” LFL’s! There’s one near my home (Fox Mill if anyone’s paying attention) that is red with a tab on the side that says 9 3/4 ….

    This one has a fair number of legal thrillers. As a lawyer, I can only approve — it makes us sound ever so much more exciting than we actually are — so clearly it needs more of them.

    While the library is decorated in cacti, a couple of the books reflect our current weather. The children’s book “The First Day of Winter” and the adult book “White Out” should set the mood for some lucky readers.

    I found this one at the corner of Merridale Blvd. and Flower Ave. in Mt. Airy, MD. And, yes. I finally figured out how to find the exact coordinates, but that takes too much effort. I don’t care if I win, I just like playing along.

    There were quite a few books for expectant mothers. I did not take one of those! Also a fair number of kiddie books.

    This Free Little Library was painted by the kids who attend the Twinbrook Community Center next to it. It even had magazines and comic books! Location is at 12920 Twinbrook Pkway in Rockville, MD. I deposited “Defending Jacob” and borrowed a comic book!

    Alan, your address references (corner of … ) are just fine. I gave people the option of using coordinates in case the LFL’s don’t show an apparent address.

    That looks like it should be here, in El Paso, where I am!
