Click It. BEAT picks of the week.

My part of the new blog format is a weekly roundup of cool things, from L.A. and beyond, currently on my radar. Please click the links to explore, and I hope you enjoy ...

I've wanted an Ork city map poster for awhile now, and thought a Brooklyn one would make sense in my new Williamsburg apartment ... yet the Los Angeles version still feels more like home

On my nightstand: the Chateau Marmont Signature Candle (a great gift for someone special, or to treat yourself!)

Listen to (Los Feliz resident) Ryan Adams' Ashes & Fire (released last week, his best since 2001's Gold)

If you love Mario Batali's Mozza group of restaurants on Melrose and Highland, pre-order Molto Batali: Simple Family Meals From My Home to Yours

Sarah Silverman & Friends at Largo tonight

Also tonight: Thrillist's Bergamont Station Art Crawl (and open bar, and food trucks)

For the weekend: check out the new West Hollywood Library (and murals by artists including Shepard Fairey)

Eat Out. The Library.

A fresh, tasty cup of coffee is the perfect thing to start the week with, for me, and The Library is a great Long Beach gem for coffee fiends.

Crafty coffee concoctions, a variety of teas, and tasty snacks abound at the the smallish shop on Broadway.

The space is excellent with a quite atmosphere (even though it has a piano in the second room), and is often a hangout for college students. There are also shelves of free books for readers to share and soft cozy couches and chairs to relax and read in while sipping at a handcrafted drink.

If you're in the Long Beach area, and need a good cup of coffee on the way into work this definitely a great place to swing by, or come by at night and spend some time just relaxing with a book.

The Library is located at 3412 E. Broadway.
