Is this the coolest library entrance ever? 😍

The Méjanes public library in Aix-en-Provence, France, is a remarkable and whimsical architectural wonder. Designed to resemble a stack of giant books, the entrance includes soaring replicas of classic literary works like Antoine de Saint-Exupéry’s “Le Petit Prince” and Molière’s “Le Malade Imaginaire.”
