Hello

How was your weekend?  Did you read anything good (or anything particularly bad)?

I watched Doctor Who.  I have to say that while essentially "The Library" was very similar to a lot of libraries (it was filmed in an old library in Swansea apparently) there were one or two elements that you are unlikely to find in your local North Lincolnshire library.  I'm not sure that we will be going down the route of having the faces of dead customers giving out information, and I'm fairly sure that the shadows around here are harmless, but it was good to see a library on TV and I look forward to next week's episode.

On a totally different note it's June, which means a new monthly theme and this time it's "Reading escapes".  It's all about how we read on holiday to relax, or to take us into another world.  To keep with that topic we have a new poll this month so that you can tell us about the type of book that you enjoy reading when you're on holiday.  And later in the week I'll set up a new discussion thread so that you can tell us about your desert-island books - so watch this space.

In the meantime, happy reading.  Now where did that shadow come from...
