Oklahoma Librarian

I've been thinking about some special events I can do this summer that either fit the color theme or sound like fun for me and the guests. This year I am in main contact for most of our museum events so I can't create every event I would like to. If you don't know, many libraries work with local organizations and museums. This can happen all year long but the summertime is our busy season so we try to fill it with fun things for everyone to do.  This is a list of my ideas both events and passive! Feel free to take any of these to make your own.  Rock Painting We have a Kindness Rock Garden at the front of our library that I was able to get set up last year . I want to have a painting event where I provide rocks, paint, paint pens, and brushes. Passive Art Puzzle I found these blank puzzle pieces on Amazon and would love to have guests color a piece and add them to the puzzle. I want to use a few pieces to write something like "Color Our Puzzle". Snail Mail Decora...

  Emily’s summer was supposed to be about helping her sister recover from an accident, not volunteering at the town’s medieval fair with her niece. The fair’s organizer, Simon, insists on sticking to his family’s traditions, but Emily has fresh ideas to make things easier and more fun for everyone. As the summer heats up, so do their clashes, sparking tension and unexpected chemistry that just might change everything for Emily. This book and the rest of this four-book series are lighthearted, funny, and perfect for anyone who loves medieval fairs or even just the idea of them. Emily and Simon's enemies-to-lovers romance will leave you smiling. With likable characters and an immersive atmosphere, it feels like enjoying a turkey leg on a hot day while dressed as a pirate.

January was a chilly and slower month for me. I got to cook for my group of friends twice in one weekend, which was fun to plan. I had a lot of car trouble that’s rolling over into February as well, with ups and downs as per usual. On the bright side, I was able to read a lot this month. I made time to sit down and work toward my reading goals, and it really paid off! January TBR Revisited This is my list from last month.  Ruthless Fae  by Caroline Peckham.
