I actually have a strong opinion on the subject, but I live with someone whose opinion is opposite, so I'm crowdsourcing here.

[Poll #1901242]

Little Free Library: Huh.

I think that some of the conclusions that I reached in the early days of the LFL are no longer valid - for one thing, cookbooks (which I thought were duds) have been requested twice by a neighbor who walks his dog by Holly House. I should be able to feed him roughly one a week, Book Thing providing.

I had also come to the conclusion that how-to books weren't of particular interest. But while I didn't write down the names of all the books I'd put out after the rain, I do know that two that I picked up & put out on a whim are gone: Fresh Water Aquariums for Dummies and Tropical Fish Aquariums for Dummies.

I'm kind of surprised by that. Knitting, quilting, gardening and scrapbooking books haven't been touched. Is it the For Dummies imprint? Or are aquariums more "guy" things? (The dogwalker is male, and has outright scorned the "girly stuff like murder books" (!) Cooking, apparently is not girly.)

As for the day, it's been a pleasant one of reading, napping, and... that's about it, actually. Pride and Prejudice is a lot longer than I remembered. I've still got two chapters to go!
