Slice of Life

Damn, local “little free library”, you went dark!

I like looking in our neighborhood’s “little free libraries” — those little boxes that community-minded people set up where the rule is “take a book, leave a book”.

While taking a quick break from my daily bike ride to check out the river, I decided to see what was in the Patterson Park little free library, and wow, did they have a particularly heavy book: Final Exit: The Practicalities of Self-Deliverance and Assisted Suicide for the Dying.

It’s a far cry from the usual selection.
