A second-grade teacher from nearby Franklin Academy had the idea to have a free little library with books available for the youth in the community. Her second-grade class was the first to add books to the free little library, starting the take-a-book, leave-a-book honor system. Even though the free little library was intended for children, I did notice some other adult books available. But thankfully, the majority of the free little library's books were children's and young adult books. The free little library is divided into three parts, one to hold taller children's books, and the other side has a shelf to fit even more books inside. The free little library was clean, and the books were organized well. Parking was available in the 15-minute spots in front of Wake Electric. If you need more time, Wake Electric's parking lot is at the back of the building. If you have any infant, toddler board books and picture books or early reader chapter books, or middle school level chapter books to young adult fiction and teen books, this is a great place to get the books into hands that will enjoy them!

Painted blue with a lovely wooden shingle roof, the library has a single door. Inside, three shelves that were well stocked with all sorts of books. Some retired library books, hardcovers, softcovers, best sellers (Bossypants!), non-fiction, biography, thrillers, children's and young adult. Lots of everything for anyone who reads. This is an independent library so it's not in the Little Free Library database or map. [Review 2426 of 2024 - 3882 in North Carolina - 23439 overall]

Ist time visitor. Been hearing about this place for a few years. Every time we drove past it on our…read moreroad trip down here to see my in-laws, my husband would make a point to point it out. Well this trip, our friends invited us to join them there. All my husband ever told me about McKay's was that it had books and records and he and this same friend would spend hours and hours and lots of money at their previous location. On the way over, my husband told me I'd probably see lots of things to buy. I seriously doubted him. Told him as much. So at first look I'm thinking "mom & pop, but bigger." I didn't grab a cart. "Ah! I aint buying nothing", I said to myself. I wander. All I see are stickers, and old electronics and I'm like, "Oh, a thrift store"...THEN I SEE IT... ALBUMS! And as if guided by an audiophilic angel, I immediately start filling the lower tier of my friend's shopping cart. Seriously underestimating this place, I eventually had to grab my own cart. I was a woman possessed by the power of the phongraph! I kept trying to force myself to put something, ANYTHING back. I tried but whatever I picked up ended up in the cart. I'd walked away from the albums. I thought I was done! Then I noticed the crates of 45's! BRUH! Within 15 seconds I was cradling 13 of them in my arms. THAT WAS THE FIRST CRATE! This was getting ridiculous. I had to stop. I refused to look thru a second crate. I turned to my husband for help... Surely he could snap me out of this spell... NOPE! He'd wandered off. When I found him he was waist-deep in his own mania. I knew hope was lost when he handed me an 8 track cassette tape! He wanted me to buy everything I'd chosen! I did the mental math. OH MY! OH MYMYMYMY! OK. We've got to be finished, then I noticed a book my friend had pulled. I immediately began lovingly accosting her, begging her to show me where she found this gem! Sadly, it was the only copy. HOWEVER... What she ended up doing was walking me over to Pandora herself, and me being the curious soul I am, took a sledgehammer to her infamous box, happily losing myself in the stacks. When the fog cleared, I had "somehow" acquired two math books and three political novels. In short order the lady on the loudspeaker warned us to bring our selections to the register as they were closing. They close at 10pm. TEN P.M.! WE GOT THERE AT 5:30! How da heck did 4 + hours fly by that fast? Was it a time slip? The Matrix?... THANOS?! All I know is that, here I sit, nearly 5 hrs later, $200 lighter, surrounded by 'all-of-the-things' and as happy as a pig in... Welp, you get the picture! Oh ya bet ya we'll be back!
