There are many ways to learn about great books to read, for example, you can ask a librarian! But if you enjoy reading publications dedicated exclusively to the newest books, you might like to check out "BookPage". This monthly publication includes articles about some of the hottest new books in all the various genres, with plot summaries, critical reviews, news from the publishing world, author interviews, a "Mystery of the Month", "Debut Fiction", and best new books for children and teens. Each month you can find out about some of the latest books available on CD. And at this time of year, you can get some great ideas about books for gift giving.

Here's even better news. You can pick up a free copy of "BookPage" at the Library. When you do, be sure to turn to the customized back page, where you'll get news about Monterey Public Library's upcoming literary events, including book discussion groups, storytimes, storytelling programs, and author visits. Happy reading!
