Sorry it's been so long since I've updated, things get a little crazy around here during the summer. Buuut, my summer programs are drawing to close so I should be making more updates here to keep you informed about things that are coming up, as well as reviews of some of the books I've been reading (I'm almost done with Gregor the Overlander!!)

But don't be too sad that the summer is almost over, I'm going to have a ton of fun things to do here at the library after school. The new brochure for the fall schedule will be out soon.

Tomorrow is Freaky Friday and I hope everyone who turned in their permission slips will be able to come!

If you're wondering what do with your time while you're waiting for school to start, you can spend part of it with me on Wednesday nights in August. I'll be showing The Emperor's New Groove and Sky High (I know most people have seen them, but I love those movies!) on August 13th and 20th at 6:30pm. I'll have popcorn and lemonade to eat and drink, so I hope you'll come join me!

See you soon!

When Harry overhears that his parents’ best friend betrayed them to Voldemort and was so angry he wanted to kill Sirius Black I cried, a lot. Besides that I thought the whole Time Turner device was really nifty on J.K.'s part (yeah, we're close, I can call her that*). I loved Lupin and the fact that chocolate is the remedy for when you've had all your worst memories brought to mind by Dementors.I also always love Scabbers so I was really sad when he turned out to be the betrayer of Lily and James Potter. Sigh. When I re-read it: January 2011 What my thoughts are now: This book is so great, I can see why it's a lot of people's favorite of the series. I mean, c'mon t...

Summer 2021 Recommendations for Your High School Reader!

By
  Summer is fast approaching and if you have a high school reader, you might be looking for new titles to engage them this summer. Librarian, historian, and author Alexandria Brown has allowed us to share their recommended lists to help make that easier! Per their blog*: As a high school librarian, offering reading recommendations for students is one of my favorite parts of my job. These lists are for parents, library workers, and teen readers... I created these lists through an alchemy involving age of the protagonists, themes, genre, tone, complexity, reader skill/comfortability level, events and topics a student will likely encounter in their studies during the school year, and books they are unlikely to read for school. I also tried to pick materials that published in the last few years or will be published by June 2021. Preference to #ownvoices and marginalized authors. Below you'll find links to their lists broken up by grade level. Whether you know an avid reader who always...
