    I like what Clare McDonald said on the library Facebook page: "Love this branch for many reasons: helpful staff, lots of DVDs and CDs, an entire wall of magazines!

    If you ever find yourself bicycling through the neighborhoody nooks and crannies off Coast Highway,…read moreyou might find yourself passing by what looks like a homemade oversized birdhouse mansion filled with books. "What *is* this?" the uninitiated gasp, with emphasis on the "is". In an otherworldly narrative tone, the kind you hear in movie voiceovers by calm, staid older bookish women, you hear the words, "This is a Little Free Library." This is your mind's voiceover, and it's narrating to you in real time as you explore this homespun freestanding structure. LFLs are this completely nifty, addictive concept I've seen scattered about in the country's best neighborhoods. You won't find them in overly restrictive neighborhoods strangleheld by HOA rules or excessive local restrictions on grassroots freestanding installations. You'll find them in neighborhoods with progressive, loving people. It's a sign of good times. You don't need a library card, you don't need to pay anything, you don't *need* anything. This is for human Beings. Human READings. Brought to you by HumanKindness. It is simply filled with books the rest of the community has read and shelved, for you -- yes, YOU -- to freely pick up and take with you to read. Simple. If you have books (don't we all?), bring them down to the LFL to trade. This Del Mar LFL was organized over a year in tricky Del Mar regulation zone from Kate Zimmer, who deserves a prize for locating one on this somewhat busy pedestrian/bicyclian local beautypoint. Thanks, Kate Zimmer! It is a beautiful jaunt down Coast Highway from my home in Solana Beach, a perfect rest stop before the dog beach or the La Jolla trails ahead. Who couldn't use a GREAT book on the beach? Speaking of GREAT books, I've consistently seen this LFL populated by books I REALLY loved reading! I've picked up Carrie Brownstein's (of Portlandia fame) Hunger Makes a Modern Girl, Dale Carnegie's granddaughter's Rich Habits for a Teenage Girl, Neil Gaiman;s Ocean at the End of the Lane, and more. I've left Isaac Asimov's 30 Year Science Introspective and Lewis Thomas' Secret Lives of a Cell. More neighborhoods need LFLs. Especially sea and sun sprayed LFLs on route to the rest of your daily adventures. If you're visiting, check this out and bring one home to your neighborhood at home!
