Staff/Teen Picks!

Are you looking for something to read or to recommend?

Look for monthly reviews from the library's knowledgeable staff.

This month a member of the library's Teen Advisory Board (TAB) is our guest book reviewer.
Many thanks to the group for submitting their reviews!

I have read many different many novels these past few years and I have to say The Outsiders is the best novel I have ever read. It is from the point of view of a teenage boy living in a world filled with gangs, fights, and judgement. This book has many themes throughout, such as: friendship, loyalty, stereotypes, and many more. This book shows you how much people are judged in the world and how friends will always be friends. This is what you need to know before you read the book - the rest is up to you.

This month's DVD review comes from the Library Director, Kristin Nelson.

The Florida Project , if you really stretch your imagination, is a little like The Outsiders. All of the main characters are outsiders in some way: to society, their families, and even themselves. The story centers around the small world of a young girl named Moonee who lives outside of Orlando, Florida and Disney World. She gets into mischief and somehow avoids serious trouble during her summer vacation from school. Ultimately, it's the peril of everyday life that Moonee cannot avoid. The Florida Project

is both riveting and hard to watch, but a film that will keep you thinking long after the credits roll.

Reflections...

Remember you are all people and all people
are you.
Remember you are this universe and this
universe is you.
Remember all is in motion, is growing, is you.
Remember language comes from this.
Remember the dance language is, that life is.
Remember.

- Joy Harjo, from Remember
