It only holds 10-15 books but that is just right. It seems to get plenty of use as the books are always changing.<br /><br />Glad you enjoyed the movie. I went the first week Downton opened and it was crowded in the afternoon. We go on Tuesdays when the price is $5 and the popcorn is free. It is a way to get people in the theaters and it works.Starting Over, Accepting Changes - Maybehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06032033918798053005noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1920860526738969165.post-79953333877120368852019-10-23T14:39:49.298-04:002019-10-23T14:39:49.298-04:00We hardly ever go to the movies anymore... unless ...We hardly ever go to the movies anymore... unless it is something that really looks great on the big screen (like Avatar).

If you wish, leave your location inside the back cover and when I opened one such book the inside back cover showed it had travelled fairly extensively. I taped up the weak spots and torn pages, then added my suburb and city before leaving it again.Riverhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14794655013673748992noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1920860526738969165.post-12554670308453542962019-10-22T23:13:54.365-04:002019-10-22T23:13:54.365-04:00Little libraries are a great idea.

So on this entire theater with two seats lit up as occupied did they pick two more, by us. The movie was starting in two minutes and I know there was not a crowd clamoring for Downton Abbey.
