I just checked the library website to see when our books are due, and lo and behold, they are due on the 8th. Well, most of them are due on the 8th, some of them were due some time last month. And I have fines. Not knowing if I’m going to get to the library today (hey, it’s snowing outside! I may not leave the house ever again), I clicked on all 24 items to renew them. But lo and behold, I got this message:
Renew failed: Unable to renew, maximum fines exceeded.
What? You’re going to block me out for a lousy $6.25? Oh, come on!
That’s it, kids. I’m tired of the library fines! No more reading! I’ll be like the book Nazi: “No Books for you!”
Or I guess maybe we WILL be going to the library today.
Ha ha, I told my kids I was the soup nazi the other day because they wouldn’t eat their dinner. The maximum fine must be $5?
Love the new format-so festive! (And I’m not just saying it because of your other post).

Yes, even with the e-mail reminders, I often have late books. I am starting to think buying books would be cheaper.
I’ve been banned from our library. Seems my son who is away at college, checked out 4 books and never returned them. They have yet to be found. I owe 84.00 to the library. I avoid even driving near there.
