Gutsy Girls book display

I put up a new book display on Monday entitled "Gutsy Girls" - and you can view the books I chose on that theme in the GoodReads widget below.

I'm waiting on a couple of orders to add more books to the display - there are a few gems coming in, like Sold and Before I die. Woot!

Happy Earth Day!

Today is Earth Day, a day to learn about and consider the Earth, its environment, and our impact on it. Parrsboro Elementary students and staff are celebrating by picking up trash on and around school grounds, and have asked everyone to have a "litterless lunch" today. With practice, hopefully we'll have litterless lunches every day!

Have a great Earth Day and don't forget that Fast Food Nation is showing (for free - but donations are accepted) at the Band Hall tonight at 7:30 pm.

Upcoming books

There are a number of books being released in the next few months that are part of some popular series here at the PRHS library, so I thought I'd give a preview.


Skulduggery Pleasant: Playing with Fire by Derek Landy (release date: April 25)

Percy Jackson & the Olympians 4: The Battle of the Labyrinth by Rick Riordan (release date: May 9)









Pretty Little Liars 4: Unbelievable by Sara Shepard (release date: May 27th)










Twilight Series 4: Breaking Dawn by Stephenie Meyer (release date: August 2)


Inheritance Cycle book 3: Brisingr by Christopher Paolini (release date: September 20)

Lots of new books!

Thanks to a donation from the PRHS Student Council, I purchased more than 30 new books for the library and have copied their covers below. There are already some new favourites that have waiting lists!

Great First Lines, part 3 in a series

Wind howled through the night, carrying a scent that would change the world.
