Recent Returns

In the Forests of the Night by Amelia Atwater-Rhodes: this first novel by a 14 year-old writer has become a classic in the vampire genre. It also involves time-travel, shapeshifting and a healthy dose of romanticism. It's a great summer read, as the fact that it has checked out 54 times (3 copies) demonstrates!

The Light of the Oracle by Victoria Hanley: A companion novel to The Seer and the Sword, and The Healer's Keep, it follows Bryn, the daughter of a stonemason, chosen to become a priestess. It seems to be a great blessing, but very soon Bryn realizes that she will have to fight to prove herself in this new, troubling place. 28 circs.

Ready or Not: An All-American Girl Novel by Meg Cabot: Samantha's boyfriend just happens to be the President's son, but now that she's turned sixteen, she's wondering if it is time to take their relationship "to the next level"... 62 circs for this great book by a very popular author.

Fruits Basket Ultimate Edition, vol 2: contains the original volumes 3 and 4 of this very popular comedic romance manga. 9 circs in less than a year!

The Eternal Smile: Three Stories by Gene Luen Yang and Derek Kirk Kim. Three graphic short stories of very different styles will amuse and entertain you. Just one lonely circ for this great book!

That's it for today, folks!
