Libraries: The Catch

Public libraries are great and I love them[^1]. I can choose books there much more freely than my budget allows me to at bookstores. But they are, alas, not perfect. They’re fine for the shorter books; I’ve checked out many books of short stories or poems and some of the breezier nonfiction. But I stay away from the big books, even the ones I would like to read. The trouble of course is that you do have to bring the books back, and sooner than later. I feel cramped by the due dates. I hate to say it, but libraries just aren’t a good fit for those big, dense, chewy books. The books that you need to take a lot of time with, the looks that you want to take a lot of time with.
