Hello! Welcome to The Cozy Library

My name is Laura and I’m your librarian

Do you remember going to the library when you were young? It was always cozy. It was warm in the winter and cool in the summer. You could hear the low hum of people whispering and the squeak of a library cart rolling between the stacks. The smell of old books filled the air. And then there were the shelves of books, filled with stories waiting to be read.

There was always a small part of me that dreamed of being a librarian. While I never made that dream come true, I’ve created this virtual library and made myself head librarian. It’s a cozy place to talk about books and share stories with book lovers, readers, and writers.
