What was your favorite book? New Year is coming…

Filed December 29, 2011 at 7:39 am under by librarian

Hello all, it is so hard to believe this year is almost over! I had a comment on the Mrs. Pollifax’s books and it got me to thinking “What was my favorite book this year?” I had several books that I really enjoyed or that really intrigued me. Two nonfiction The Glass Castle by Jeanette Walls and The Immortal Life of Henrietta Lacks by Rebecca Skloot. For fiction I guess for total comfort it has to be the Mrs. Pollifax books. What have you read and enjoyed?

Remember we will be closed Monday, January 2nd, in observance of New Year’s Day. Hope to see you soon!

We do have new books in Joanna Fluke, Patrick McManus, David Baldacci, John Sandford, John Grisham, Jan Karon, Robert Parker, Diana Palmer, Karen Kingsbury and more.
