@OrkneyLibrary Spectacular! I used to work for a famous hotel in St Andrews some years ago and the most asked question by American tourists to Scotland at that time was "what time does the Aurora Borealis come on?" 🤣

Time for another librarian book recommendation! If you loved "Where the Crawdads Sing" by Delia Owens you will also greatly enjoy reading "Go as a River" by Shelley Read. It is truly a heart-wrenching coming-of-age story and a drama of enthralling power. Enjoy!
