Handpicked by Simon
This is a monthly list. I'm an Adult Services Associate at River Forest Library, and I love all things bicycle-related (books, movies, actually riding a bike). Hobbies of mine are playing drums, collecting records, and listening to music. I also enjoy reading graphic novels, political non-fiction, science/speculative fiction, and bleak epic reads. If you want recommendations, I'm more than happy to help! |
