Back to School!

So I have been terribly remiss this summer in posting on here. Sorry! My only defense is that summer reading program was going on, which was of course crazy busy! But now that's over, and I'm going to try to be better.

So, upcoming teen events:

• Teen Advisory Board meeting on Monday, 8/15, 6 p.m. If you've never been before, now is a great time to start! Come be a part of what happens for teens at the library. We want your input!!
• Teen Gaming on Thursday, 8/18, 6-7:30 p.m. This is the only gaming night in August, since we have no youth programs during the first two weeks. So come take advantage of it - free food, awesome games, and good company!
• Teen Duct Tape Marvels on Monday, 8/22, 6 p.m. What exactly we'll be making out of duct tape is a surprise, but it'll be marvelous! (Hehe...get it?? Duct Tape Marvels will be marvelous??)

August also means (insert ominous music here).....BACK TO SCHOOL!!! For those of you who are excited about school, good for you!! But I know, some of you look forward to that about as much as you look forward to going to the dentist. But I can help! I've got a display of books up in the YA section right now filled with books related to school. How does that help, you might ask? Well, some of the characters in these books have to deal with rather unusual situations at school, and sometimes rather awful situations. Maybe reading these books will make you feel relieved that you just have to deal with classes and regular teachers! That makes sense, right? :) Also, make sure to check back at this display periodically. I'm going to be changing the theme on it regularly, sometimes coinciding with holidays, sometimes just coinciding with whatever I feel like putting up! But they'll all be fun/interesting!

That's all for now! Stay tuned in the near future for the next edition of....NEW BOOK REVIEWS!!
