New year, new things!

Welcome back, everyone!  Kennedy just showed me a new website today (well, new to me, although I think I have stumbled upon it before) and I've added it to my "useful links."  It's called goodreads and has lots of great features like suggesting books based on what you've enjoyed in the past and contests you can enter (even when you live in Canada!)  Take the time to poke around a bit;  you might find it useful if you are an avid reader!

Next, I finished reading Divergent over the holidays and I LOVED it!  So did my 13-year-old, Charlie.  The sequel, Insurgent will be out in May and I can hardly wait.  Thanks for the recommendation Hira!  I also read Stephen King's new book 11/22/63 which was amazing, but a little too mature for our library!  Also 849 pages, so a bit lengthy for some students - you need to focus on your schoolwork!

If all goes well this week, Senior Book Club will meet on Thursday at 11:40 as usual and then we will get back to our regular schedule with Junior Book Club meeting next Tuesday as we normally do.  Listen for announcements.
