2020 all over again????

Well, needless to say I have been a HUGE slacker. For me, 2021 has been just about as disappointing as 2020. At least restaurants are back open (well the ones that could open) and I can go to the movies again. School has started back to in person learning but sadly I am no longer the librarian at the school I was working at. I think I might be in a mid life crisis, brought on by the pandemic of course:-), and have changed careers. I am so very much missing what I did in my previous life and I have been slacking in getting my bookmobile out there so I’m trying a different approach. If you have landed here because you picked up one of the bookmobile books somewhere, then welcome. What you will see on here are pictures of kiddos at the bookmobile, all of whom I miss very much. I still have so many books that need to be in the hands of kids, so feel free to drop me a line if you would like more books. I can give you recommendations for your reluctant reader or even get your teen excited about a new series. However, if you are looking for adult fiction I am so not your person:). I’ve got a huge variety to choose from. If you happen to have a bookmobile book, feel free to keep it, pass it on or dispose of it if it has gotten dirty or wet.

I am going to start reviewing books again…well that is my plan anyways. You can find many past reviews at www.neverwearmatchingsox.wordpress.com. Or find me on Goodreads: goodreads.com/inkedmom67.

Cheers and happy reading,

This is what Christmas looks like for a bookmobile

On one of my adventures, I connected with a kiddo just by chance. I think that her and I would be able to talk books with no problem. Her mom reached out a couple of days ago to let me know they had books for me. I wasn’t expecting the bounty I got and if I stop too long to think about it, I get teary eyed. Who am I? Just a woman with a car full of books who knows the importance of having a book in hand…for strangers to trust me is such a foreign concept. These books were a gift to me and I will pass them on, hopefully at a very special event in December, to kids that need them.

Had to put the 1st box in a bag so I could carry them.
So.many.amazing.books. I can’t wait to share!!

People are still kind

I’ve acquired more books again. Some were donated, some I bought. Some of the donated books came from someone I’ve never even met. It blows my mind that a complete stranger would go out of their way to bring me books, just because I say I have a book mobile. I also got another monetary donation but this time from a family I feel that I know pretty well. Again, blowing my mind. My concept is simple….maybe too simple. I want kids to have books. But will it really make a difference? I don’t know but while I contemplate that question, here are new additions to the book mobile.
