Okay, well not everything. But I can definitely name a few.. This is the newest awesome thing from the Big Apple. It's a list of all sorts of awesome (okay, maybe I should look through a thesaurus for some new words..*) books for teens from the teens at the New York Public Library. It's called Stuff for the Teen Age 2009 and it has books in different categories with lots of book talks by New York teens about the books. Check it out!

Hope you're all having a great weekend, and are excited about going back to school Monday!
Don't Forget to be Awesome!

* Looked up awesome in a thesaurus:

adjective

Far beyond what is usual, normal, or customary: exceptional, extraordinary, magnificent, outstanding, preeminent, rare, remarkable, singular, towering, uncommon, unusual. Informalstandout. Slangout of sight.

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...

Coraline Trailer!

Here's the best trailer for Coraline so far. And it's actually Neil Gaiman's (he wrote the book) favorite! The movie comes out February 6th and I'll definitely be seeing it that weekend, so if you want to see it with me let me know and we can get a group of people to see it together! I know Kathleen and Mallory are already on board! dftba, Sti
