Saturday was European day of languages
No exciting trails in the library for S1 unfortunately this year but we do have a SWAY in the form of a library newsletter for European Day . Hopefully this will give you ideas on what to read and where you might try to find out more about languages. Enjoy.
So the Book request system is going great. You are doing a fab job of sending me requests. But I only have a limited number of copies of each book. There is not any more Harry Potter, Divergent, Twilight or Hunger Games books to be had. For the moment anyway.
So am going to start making a couple of sways to try and give you other ideas. Starting with: If you like Harry Potter ...Why not try these titles. Let me know what you think and if you have other suggestions please feed back to me.
A holiday weekend means I can catch up on reading more teen fiction. And one book I absolutley tore through is the thrilling "The one memory of Flora Banks" by Emily Barr.
Flora has had amnesia since the age of ten.. At seventeen she can't remember what happened more than a few hours ago and relies on post it notes and writing messages such as "Flora be brave"on her arm to get through the day. But one memory, that of kissing a boy on a beach, remains with her. Confident that it is real and that there has been a breakthrough in her fractured memory she sets off to meet that boy.
This book is an exciting and original page turner.
The short list was announced last week. We have have all three books in the library. This year you do not need to be part of a book group to vote. Simply read all three on the short list and register your vote online. If you are interested please see Dr Carter.
