News and notices

Ever wonder what’s so fantastic about the Fantastic Four? Wonder what’s the backstory of your favorite superhero movies? The library has added a new collection, Graphic Novels, to the fiction section that will awe and amaze. These dynamic fusions of pulse-pounding plots and mind-blowing artwork feature both reprints of formative titles and the newest, cutting-edge series of today. So even if you don’t know Ant-Man from Aunt May, stop in, kick back and expand your horizons.

If you’re late getting to your New Year’s resolutions, keep in mind that we have a plentiful supply of exercise, healthful eating and home organization books. It’s never too late to improve your life. (And if your resolution is to read more — we can help with that, too.)

Don’t miss the stunning charcoal drawings by young artist Brooke Lamberti on the Library Art Wall through January.

Reader Recommended — Patrons and staff are enthusiastic about these titles:

A patron recommended the highly enjoyable novel, “Brilliant” by Marne Davis Kellogg.

Also excellent is “The War That Saved My Life” by Kimberly Brubaker Bradley. Don’t be put off by its being juvenile fiction; it is really gripping and moving. The sequel, “The War I Finally Won” was recently released.
