Now that Christmas is approaching get in the holiday spirit with one of these wonderful Christmas albums from the circulating collection:

“Libraries were full of ideas—perhaps the most dangerous and powerful of all weapons.”

"Here be Dragons" in these book series by Melissa de la Cruz, Michael Johnston, Mari Mancusi, Sophie Jordan, Garth Nix, Carrie Vaughn, and Julie Kagawa.

Realistic YA books free of vampires, paranormal beings, zombies, and governments out to brainwash the masses.

Mr. Bolaños was well known across Latin America for his shows El Chaco del Ocho and El Chapulin Colorado. He was an actor, writer, and director.

The holiday season is just beginning, and I would like to recommend some Christmas books in the library collections!

In the past few years many YA books have been successfully turned into films. Here are the next handful to get screen treatment.

One staff member's picks for the best young adult books this year.

Fins, The Syrena Legacy, Lumatere Chronicles and more.

Alyson Noël has written multiple book series. One of her bestselling series is The Immortals Series.

Claudia Gray is a YA author known for her bestselling Evernight series.

Graceling is set in the seven kingdoms a land where people who are born with magical powers are called “Gracelings.”

Richelle Mead has written five book series. Three of them are adult series and two are YA series. Her debut series was published in 2007.

New books and movies from these three authors.

Author Marie Lu describes her new novel as an inspired mixture of X-Men, Game of Thrones and Assassin’s Creed 2! The novel, The Young Elites, is set during a 1300s Renaissance Italy, inspired dystopian land. The novel tells the tale of Adelina Amouteru.

Romance and fantasy to look forward to next year.

Start planning for college with books from the library.

These books are nowhere near as popular as The Hunger Games or The Fault in Our Stars but they are worth a read.

Thirst is the epic tale of Alisa, a five thousand-year-old vampire. She is on the run from her maker who wants her dead.
