When out walking, I always try to stop by the stoop between Broadway and Amsterdam on 88th street that is kept supplied by the Franciscan Community Center Thrift Shop and (as I have learned during my visits) by locals with free books. Take a book, leave a book, there is always something interesting! Last week, a woman was dropping off a complete series of books she had just finished reading, while someone else found a book on NY architecture that they needed for a school course. Sometimes the pickings are sparse but all the more reason to stop by more often and return books for others to find.
