🌱 Want to grow a better garden?
🔨 Need to know how to build a barn?
🍳 Looking for a new recipe?
🤔 Or maybe you just want to learn something new?

We probably have a book for that!

We have TWO full book carts of nonfiction and reference books FOR SALE at the Eclectic Public Library — covering everything from test prep and home improvement to gardening, cooking, history, hobbies and plenty of things we haven’t even thought to Google yet. 😂

Come dig through the carts. You never know what useful — or wonderfully random — book you might find!

Recently, one of our readers stepped outside her normal reading comfort zone with How to Sell a Haunted House by Grady Hendrix. 👻🏠

Haunted houses, family secrets, creepy puppets…yeah, this one’s a little different. 😂

Love it? Great! ❤️
