The middle school book club will be meeting March 4 (Friday) during both lunches to discuss A Wrinkle in Time. After that I am thinking that Chains and The Hunger Games will round out the book club year. I feel aweful that it took so long to get the club going. But this year I was overwhelmed with Battle of the Books reading, and I lost my readers who sort of ran the club itself which was a nice break for me. So I have lived and learned and hope to get back on track next year.
Today I am working on getting new books ready to be checked out, cleaning up some loose ends, and having a rather quiet day in here. It's been pretty nice. I hope you're having a great day!

Sorry for the disappearence!
I'm around--we have had a ton of new books come into the library so I've been playing with those. It is the beginning of the semester and I have library aids, so I've been working with them. AND I FINISHED READING THE BATTLE OF THE BOOKS BOOKS!!! I am so excited to be done with that :) So I can read some new books! I am so glad I read all of these books--there were a few that I would never have picked up and I would have missed out on some great reading. The biggest surpise: Claudette Colvin: Twice Towards Justice. I learned so much from this book about segregation and desegregation, the South during this period, how women were treated, and to be honest: laws in general. It really was a pleasure to learn while reading this book.
Book club met after we read Roar by Emma Clayton and now we're going to read A Wrinkle In Time. FYI, I have never read it and I'm pretty excited to.
It's been a busy week but hopefully I'll be back later with more news.
