When good neighbors go bad (blog)
by Katie Killian
Here at the library, we want to be a good neighbor to the whole community. After all, our slogan essentially is, “All are welcome here.”
Neighbors of all sorts have been the topic through the years. Recently, I came across a new book I really enjoyed - The Neighbor Favor by Kristina Forest (Adult New Fiction) - which reminded me how neighbors can surprise us with their kindness and unknown backstories.
However, that backstory can also take a more sinister turn. Though we may not get to pick neighbors, at least we can pick the books we read and enjoy them!
