Anyone who thinks romance novels have unrealistic plots should know I met my husband in 2nd grade. We dated in middle school. Found each other on MySpace when we were 21. We eloped on the beach in Antigua 6 years later. We have 2 kids and a Maltese. 8th anniversary 4-4

Do you realise what a radical thing libraries are? Publicly-funded spaces where you can access information, countless books, and the internet even if you are homeless? There is a reason why people in power want to convince you they are superfluous and should be defunded.
