YA March Madness Returns!

Hey everyone! It's time for March Madness again!

If you'll remember, last year we voted on the best YA book, and y'all chose The Hunger Games by Suzanne Collins. This year we're switching it up with a Heroes and Villains Showdown.

One one side of the bracket we have 8 heroes, on the other side 8 villains. Each week 2 heroes and 2 villains will be pitted against each other until we have the Ultimate Hero vs. the Ultimate Villain to see who wins and who falls.

This week the contenders are*:

Heroes

Katsa vs. Clary Fray

Percy Jackson vs. Ichigo

Maximum Ride
vs. Katniss Everdeen

Scott Pilgrim vs. Eragon

Villains

Voldemort vs. Artemis Fowl

Galbatorix vs. Mrs. Coulter

Valentine Morgenstern
vs. Saint Dane

Duke Roger vs. Kronos

The ballots are available in the library on the back side of the large black display wall (you can't miss it!), so come out and vote for your favorites!

I know Kathleen and Mallory are already on board! dftba, Sti

I chose the name Book Bag after looking at the names of some other libraries' blog titles, but if there is a better name out there, let me know! I created this blog primarily so you can find out what activities are coming up for the 11-16 age group here at the library. I'll be posting brief descriptions of our activities, photos, book reviews, and other interesting things that I happen to see. In recent news: the TAG Christmas party was December 8, and everyone worked together to make it a success. Thanks to all the hardworking volunteers! We ate holiday snacks, sang Christmas karaoke, and had a snowball fight outside! Check out the library's Flickr site for all the pictures. We're taking a brief break during the Christmas holidays, but we'll be starting up again on January 11 with personalizing snack dishes to use every week. Instead of throwing away bowls and cups after our Fr...
