The Little Free Library

Little Free Library, Pittsburgh, 2015


My favorite website is probably io9.com.  I can spend all day there if I'm not careful.  They cover science, science fiction, fantasy, books, movies, tv, art, history, just about anything that can tickle your (my) fancy.  Today I came across a piece by Charlie Jane Anders about how a few communities have gone after the Little Free Library. 
Why, America, why do we persist in wasting time, effort, and tax dollars railing against shadow enemies?  Books and the Little Free Library pose no threat to the community in which they are located, unless you fear books, the exchange of ideas, an open mind.
All Hail the Little Free Library!  May she reign forever!
