Trying to keep
abreast of new books? Stop by the Adult
Services Desk and take home the latest copy of BookPage, a selection guide to
the best new titles released each month.
Bookpage’s mission
is "to connect every book lover with their next great read." Reviews encompass a wide range of new books
from literary fiction, history and biography to popular genres such as mystery
and romance, with sections dedicated to recently published titles for children
and teens. In addition, each issue
includes author interviews and special features. In May’s BookPage, Chris
Cleave talks about his new novel “Everyone Brave is Forgiven,” and
Pulitzer-prize winner Richard Russo explains why twenty years after the
publication of “Nobody's Fool,” he decided to revisit the residents of North
Bath, New York in “Everybody's Fool.”
The May issue also spotlights new books for planning a road trip and
historical fiction focusing on Jewish history.
Not to be outdone,
our librarians use their unique perspectives to create two monthly
publications, Fiction News and Non-Fiction News that highlight new books chosen
for their relevance to the diverse reading interests of our patrons. Pick up copies at the library or view them on
the Reader's Resources section of our website.
