The third book of The Hunger Games trilogy will be hitting shelves August 24, 2010. To help us count down the days, Scholastic has made a very cool Mockingjay countdown. Pretty cool, right? And for the record, I'm totally Team Peeta! If August seems too far away, you can always check out these other dystopian novels:Candor by Pam BachorzThe Maze Runner by James DashnerThe Other Side of the Island by Allegra GoodmanGone by Michael GrantThe Giver by Lois LowryLabels: Booklists

Valentine's Day is almost here and we're celebrating at The Library Center with Girls Night Out: Book Crush. Join the fun February 19 at 7pm as we talk about our favorite lit character crush, cast the dream movies of YA books, and of course, eat chocolate! So, who are my top lit crushes? I have a long-time crush on Gilbert Blythe from Anne of Green Gables. I'm very much on Team Peeta, from The Huger Games. And if I were going on adventure to save an entire kingdom, I'd want Po from Graceling by my side. Haven't read any of my lit crushes books? Check them out from the library (but be warned-you may fall in love!) So, who's your lit crush?Labels: Girl's Night Out, Program
