I am an adult services librarian and it is a hazardous profession. Too many books, too little time! Don't make me, but if I HAD to choose my favorite book recipe, it would be a romance novel with a healthy dash of horror, topped with the latest picture book. Add some outside time, epic soundtracks and I'm feeling groovy.
