Guess what guess what!!

The teen summer reading program final raffle winner has been chosen. No, it wasn't someone from the Five Forks branch who won. It was someone from Collins Hill.

I know, you will probably cry about it for a week at least BUT----

Do not fear! We have a teen program coming up in October! And we'll have more later in the year! And next year, too! 'Twill be fantastic! Oh, the larks we will get up to . . .

In the meantime, you can always come in and check out spectacular books. We are overflowing with righteous teen literature that you should devour in one sitting. AND you can talk to me, which I know you have all been dying to do.

Teen Rep from Mars (aka Five Forks Library)

I know you are all very sad that summer is over, and you have to go back to school, which seriously cuts into your time to read good books, but . . .
You can still enter to win our FINAL SUMMER PRIZE DRAWING! This prize consists of TWO tickets to Medieval Times and some memorabilia as well. You only have until the 15th to enter, so head on in to the library today.

And if you can find time to squeeze in some pleasure reading, we have so much good stuff in right now you really should come on down. If you can't get enough vampires after reading (and rereading) the Twilight Saga, you might be interested in:

1. The Cirque du freak series by Darren Shan

2. Look for Me By Moonlight by Mary Downing Hahn (there aren't many copies of this one, but it's mint so try to get ahold of it if you can)

3.Vampire Academy series by Richelle Mead

4.Vampire Beach series by Alex Duval

5. Vampire Diaries series by L. J. Smith

6. Vampire Plagues series by Sebastian Rook

Some of these are on the shelf as I write, but some you may have to request from another branch, which of course, your wonderful librarians are always happy to do for you because we love you so much.

We don't have any brilliant teen programs scheduled just yet, but you know I'll let you know when we do, so do not fret.

Anni,

Head of Awesomeness

If you are looking for something good to read, we've got plenty of great stuff here. There's a new sequel to Touching Spirit Bear by Ben Mikaelson out now called Ghost of Spirit Bear. If you want something funny, try Louise Rennison. Her Confessions of Georgia Nicolson series is a riot. The first one is called Angus, Thongs, and Full Frontal Snogging. Her newest book will be available in the library soon as well. And of course, these books can be found in the very awesome Teen Scene section of your library.

The Teen Scene-- it's where all the cool kids hang out!
