The Dark Library by Cyrille Martinez
4.0
I received a copy of this book from the publisher in exchange for an honest review.
3.5 round up to 4
Libraries are constantly evolving to suit their patrons, communities, and the world at large. When I first experienced going to a library they were hallowed halls of silence and reading. No talking, no running, and absolutely no food or drink. Fast forward several decades and libraries are pretty noisy gathering spots where you can grab snacks at the vending machine and then proceed to crackle your chip bag for the next half hour disrupting people who who would actually like to read. Author Cyrille Martinez creates a mythical library where the books tell you what they think about the change in people's reading styles and provides a comical answer to never having access to a book you want to read. This short book (160 pages) was kooky fun and I would recommend it to librarians and book lovers.
