What really happened that wild night? Emily knows in her bones that her father
is innocent -- isn't he? Before he's convicted, she's got to find out the
truth. Does Damon Hilary, Ashlee's charismatic boyfriend, have the answers? Or is
he only playing games with her -- the kinds of games that can kill?</span>Mrs. Badehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/06916956987461174883noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4501174455758989094.post-19167329395770380872016-03-18T08:39:00.001-07:002017-01-03T10:27:05.910-08:00<h3>

Cafe Library will meet on Tuesday Nov. 26th to discuss<i> Ashes</i> by Ilsa J. Bick. Summary:<span style="font-family: Times, Times New Roman, serif;"> "</span>Alex, a resourceful seventeen-year-old running from her incurable brain tumor; Tom, who has left the war in Afghanistan; and Ellie, an angry eight-year-old, join forces after an electromagnetic pulse sweeps through the sky and kills most of the world's population, turning some of those who remain into zombies and giving the others superhuman senses." So far, the reaction to the book is good. There is a MAJOR cliff hanger at the end...but this is a trilogy so you will want to read the next book!

Cafe Library at LMHS is beginning its 7th year of book clubbing! We are going to read <i>Unwind </i>by Neal Schusterman for October. Here's a one line summary: Three teens embark upon a cross-country journey in order to escape from a society that salvages body parts from children ages thirteen to eighteen. Talk about creepy!!!<br />
<br />
We are shooting for meeting on October 31st during lunch in the LMC. I hope you join us.<br />

This is a fitting end-of-the-year book as book club member, Alex O., is a senior and one of his favorite author's is John Green. I have heard lots of positive comments from students about this book. Here's the Amazon summary, "Despite the tumor-shrinking medical miracle that has bought her a few years,
Hazel has never been anything but terminal, her final chapter inscribed upon
diagnosis. But when a gorgeous plot twist named Augustus Waters suddenly appears
at Cancer Kid Support Group, Hazel’s story is about to be completely
rewritten."<a href="http://www.amazon.com/gp/mpd/permalink/m2OL7M9UUWWGRW/ref=ent_fb_link" target="_blank"> Take a look at this trailer by Green.</a> I have started reading this and I have to say, it's hard to put down! I hope you all check it out! </div>
Meeting date TBD.<br />

So far, 3 Cafe Library members finished the book and LOVED it. I too, really liked it and graphic novels are not my favorite genre. This memoir chronicles the life of American author and illustrator David Small, detailing his sickly childhood and teenage years, relationship with his parents, his cancer, and more. There are several twists and turns that even this librarian didn't see coming. I think this book will be interesting to discuss.</div><br /><br /><div></div><br /><br /><div></div></div>Mrs. Badehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/06916956987461174883noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4501174455758989094.post-85873441162826998952011-01-26T13:51:00.001-08:002011-01-26T17:37:33.549-08:00Feb.
