ASTER (ID: 000000a1c9fcb7e6) Voted 2 ★ - Updated 06/15/2023 When I found this I was pretty sure each tab would have a different quote, but every time I open a new tab it's the same exact quote. I don't know if this is intentional or a glitch.

Marseille Wofford (ID: 000000a6f250ef0b) Voted 5 ★ - Updated 06/12/2023 It's really cute and I enjoy the combination of library pics and quotes. I search for writing quotes for inspiration all the time and now all i have to do is open a new tab and its already there. My only "complaint" is that I wish the extension also added the location of the libraries.
