There's only a few days left to submit your library scavenger hunt worksheets for a prize and chance at a gift card. The contest runs until April 30th!

Aislinn is a 17 year old girl who is one of the few humans in the world that can see faeries. She has learned how to avoid them, as they are pretty horrible creatures who like to reek havoc on anyone who crosses their path. But when two faeries begin following her, she is forced to become part of an age old battle between the Summer King and the Winter Queen. Will she choose to help the Summer King, or will she follow her heart and abandon her destiny? Find out in Wicked Lovely.

I just finished Wicked Lovely by Melissa Marr, and it was excellent. Melissa paints a very vivid picture in this book. You find yourself lost in the world she has created. Melissa has also written 2 other books in this series, Ink Exchange and Fragile Eternity (comes out April 21). I am in the process of ordering both books to add to our collection here at the library. I also got to meet her at the TLA library conference last week. She was extremely well spoken and a really cool person. Check out her website to see just how awesome she is:

I would love to hear from you guys what books you are reading and enjoying. Feel free to post your comments below. Let's get a discussion going!

There is a lot of stuff happening this month at the library!

All month long you can pick up a scavenger hunt form. It is incredibly easy, so be sure and fill one out. When you turn it in, you get a small prize and a chance at a gift card.

On April 20th from 6-7:30pm is Battle of the Books. Team up with your friends to swiftly answer easy questions based on popular books. It's gonna be fast paced and a lot of fun, so check it out! Oh, and the winners get prizes. Refreshments will also be served. Free food and prizes.....how can you say no?!?

For those of you without a library card, bring in a guardian sometime in April and you will get a free library bag just for signing up for your very own library card. There are lots of goodies in the bag, and everyone who signs up has a chance at a really awesome book bag filled with even better stuff.
