We want to hear from you! YA surveys are in the library! We'll put a link on surveymonkey.com when we get it up and running.

Wondering what to read today?? Advanced readers should check out (literally at the library) Erik Larson's "The Devil in the White City: Murder, Magic, and Madness at the Fair That Changed America"...a gripping tale about two men -- one a creative genius, the other a mass murderer -- who turned the 1893 Chicago World's Fair into their playground. Set against the dazzle of a dream city whose technological marvels presaged the coming century, this real-life drama of good and evil unfolds with all the narrative tension of a fictional thriller. Too hard? You might enjoy Ann Brashares "The Sisterhood of the Traveling Pants"...A funky pair of dungarees and a strong friendship lie at the heart of this compelling coming-of-age novel. During the first summer they'll be separated from each other, four friends share a pair of second-hand jeans...and experience happiness, heartbreak, and all the complications of growing up. Have fun!
