Hello my lovelies! Here's one of my all-time favorite tips for the Hunt for Happiness Week this week - GREAT BOOKS to read! 1. You have to use Google Chrome for this tip and use Amazon.com. 2. If you use Chrome, download the Library Extension in Google Chrome Web Store: https://chrome.google.com/webstore/detail/library-extension/chkgcmmjoejpekoegkedcpifgfhpjmec 3. Once you download it - go into it and put your local libraries. 4. Then search for new books to read on Amazon - the library extension should pop up on each book's page with where you can get it - WITH YOUR LIBRARY CARD, for free! Yippie! 5. Note that it also appears to work in Goodreads, B&N and Google Books too.
