Library is live as of 9/9, and the first two books have gone out into the wild!

Both non-fiction.

The Man Who Mistook His Wife For a Hat - Oliver Sacks

Maus - Art Spiegelman - Pulitzer Prize winner

https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Maus

Both excellent choices!

This is awesome. Did you build it? Where are you going to put it? Do you have more pictures of the complete library box?

It was a gift from:

This particular model:

Once the post and bench are prepped, it's going out on the corner on the other side of our privacy fence.

There's another HHGTtG book by Eoin Colfer (with permission from Adams' widow) called "And Another Thing." In case you want to complete the collection.

I'm one of those that consider the H2G2 trilogy complete with the 5 original books.
