Welcome back!
Coming to the end of a truly great book can be bittersweet. It helps to know, though, that after a book has been taken back to the library, it's always waiting patiently on the shelf to be read another day!

a: I'm going to the library. Bye!
b: Wait! Can you return this book for me? I just finished reading it. - WOMAN: I'd like to check out these CDs, please.
LIBRARIAN: Sure. (after recording them on the computer) Here you are. And please return them within two weeks. - (a man handing a book to a librarian)
I'm sorry. I was supposed to return this book last week.
And we'll be waiting patiently for you until we meet again tomorrow!
