Library pick up this week !

Have y’all read any of these? Thoughts? #lemon8contest #letschat #libraryreader #libraryweek #lemon8bookclub

2024/11/26 Edited to

This week at the library highlights several fascinating titles that cater to diverse literary tastes. Notably, the list includes 'Lunch Lady and the Video Game Villain' by Emily McIntire, which promises a fun adventure, and the impactful 'Last Child in the Woods' by Richard Louv, which critically examines children's disconnection from nature. Moreover, the thrilling 'A Never After Novel' by Ruth Ware and the gripping tale 'The Troop' by Nick Cutter add depth to this week's lineup. These selections not only entertain but also prompt important conversations about modern themes ranging from adventure to environmental consciousness. If you're a part of the Lemon8 community, don't forget to share your thoughts on these books in our ongoing discussions using the hashtags #libraryweek and #lemon8bookclub. Happy reading!

I just recently got a library card and I went the other day to start looking at good choices and you just motivated me to go find me some really good books.

Diana De Los Santos

yes to the public library! I started going this year since I decided not to spend so much money on books. I don't have the space!
