Awesome! Have fun out there. We're going to traverse the North Side neighborhoods and wrap up in Evanston after my daughter's soccer game.

It's definitely going to be expensive. :-)

I am so glad the Carnegie Library post caught your attention. Putting it together was so fascinating and I was surprised how few people seemed interested/engaged!

I've wanted to do a deep dive on it and you did it for me, and much better than I ever could have. :)

I thought it was going to be much more straightforward than it ended up being! Yes, the Carnegie designation is pretty straightforward but the pieces about being plagued and designated as a historic landmark, not so much.

Wonderful links, per usual, Gayla. I enjoyed the BookRiot one on the dangers of dating a reader (of all the addictions to have, I’d be most sympathetic to that one!). Hope to check out the other links soon.
