My Answer:

No. I know of two Little Free Libraries in my town. One is right in front of an elementary school, which I assume is mainly for kids, and since I don’t have any children, it’s not really for me. The other one is near a church, and it always seems to be filled with books when I go by, but for whatever reason, I've never looked in it.

  1. It can be fun to hunt them down, even when out of town. I need to do it more often.

    2. I'll take you at your word. I've never tried to hunt them down; I’ve never even considered it

    3. Give it a try - it's a good way to "clean off" your shelves and also spread the love of reading. :)

  2. They are definitely fun to find but I don't have too many in my area. I love seeing what's inside when I do I encounter them though!

  3. There are about 15 in my area that I visit when I am near by.

    I keep a bag of books in my car "just in case." :)

    1. That's a lot of places to visit! Do you only donate, or do you also pick up books from there?

      Delete
    2. I mostly donate but if I take a book, I usually put it in another Little Free Library to spread the love. :) They are in close towns so it's nice to take it to another location. :)

  4. Our neighborhood Little Free Libraries could use makeovers. I need to donate some books. Have a great weekend. :)

    1. I donate. Love to go back and see that mine are gone. 😀 That’s even more fun than finding a book.

    2. There are only two I know of in my town. The one near the Church is always full. Then there's another one in front of the elementary school. I don't have kids, and I rarely read kids' books, so I never have anything to donate. I usually donate to the local Salvation Army or the Animal Humane Society Thrift store.

  5. There are not enough of them to visit....
