ugh i hate when you request a series from the library and you get the second book but not the first.
ALEX NO
i just wanna read vicious okay?
The Night Guard
What app do you use again?
ALEX NO
for the library?
ALEX NO
i do it through cwmars which is my local library system and that connects to overdrive.
ALEX NO
but i use the library extension on chrome which really helps because you can put in your local library grouping and then it shows you if you have access through your library to the book on amazon and goodreads. right there on the page.

oh did you see that you can now take out books on overdrive from other MA libraries?? BECAUSE I HAVE LEARNED THAT AND IT'S THE BEST

(I work at a bookstore but I use libraries so that instead of buying a book that catches my fancy and then never reading it, I can borrow a book that catches my fancy and then never read it and then return it)

Caletara
Oh no! was it already checked out to you?
Caletara
try it in the libby app, in case it's a browser screw up?
Caletara
if its not too a high requested book, you could try returning it and see if you can take it back out.
Caletara
but im wondering if its a browser issue. I'd try the app or even another browser.
ALEX NO
