We were never a religious family. From my earliest memory, my grandmother took me regularly to this majestic public library in the small town, county seat of Crown Point, Indiana. Marble floors, exquisite woodwork, hidden nooks with plush wing back chairs, freezing cold water from the ornate iron drinking fountains, and the overall hush of a perfect quiet. I guess it's accurate to say I found my religion here, wandering the stacks and picking out armfuls of books. ‪#‎amwriting‬
