A Little Free Library on North 43rd Street doesn’t look like that much: a blue wooden box on a post filled with donated books, puzzles, and whatever else happens to land there. But after stumbling across its decade-long trail of guestbook entries, holiday decorations, repairs, a missing weather vane, and an outbreak of alleged book theft, it starts to seem like something more.
