So my personal library has run dry, and I decided too make the decision too visit my local library.
I've been going too the libraries since my youth, being able too find the "weird" books for my middle school age fairly easy, those being "The road", the author Darren Shan, and similar "safe-edgy for the time" reads.
Jesus H Christ was it ever depressing visiting in the modern day. ALL the books in the "Canadian history" section is just about native abuse, and how the hwhite man is bad (with a nice LGBTQIAP+BBQ row underneath)
So I decided, "huh might as well see how my past youth is" and the young adult section is a similar pain, no cool "demon" books mostly just books on "how I pozzed my neghole" or "my parents don't believe me"
Finally, I drug myself too the front desk, thankfully the front desk true and honest lady was very helpful in aiding me. So turns out most of the books I look for are now cached somewhere else, not too be put on display (authors such as Cormac McCarthy, PKD, and just general Canadian history.)
So I guess I have too start building a library for my future kids. Which isn't too bad, since I would enjoy reading "the happy man and his dump truck" as it was a certified hood classic
