Read a New Book, Get Hooked on a Series or into the Halloween Spirit
Looking for something new to read? Many new books have been added to the collection and are currently on display in the library. Some have been highlighted on the New Book shelf on the left below.
If you like reading books in series, the library has many. There is a “Get Hooked on a Series” display up right now: The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo, The Mortal Instruments, Pendragon and Wickedly Lovely to name a few. If there is a book in a series missing, tell Ms. Clark. She will pick up a copy for the library collection.
Get into the Halloween spirit and read a mystery or horror book. Pick up a book by Darren Shan or a short story by the master Edgar Allen Poe or read a classic tale like Dracula.
Fall into reading this October!!!
