Teen Reads Twilight Movie Thank You
First off, thanks to our young patrons who attended the Twilight Movie Night for being so well behaved and such good sports when things ran a bit late. A big thank-you to the CHANCES volunteers for helping us set up the room for the movie, and special big thanks to our trusty trustee, Brian Beaverstock for providing the projector. We also want to say a special thank you to teen baker Brianna B. for making an incredible Twilight cake! (If you are looking for a cake for an event, you can contact Brianna through the library and we will pass on messages.)
We would also like to extend a very special Thank-You to Pat Taylor and her sister, Linda Wade, for donating the incredible Twilight souvenirs which came directly from Forks, WA, the setting for the books and film.
We just could not provide these fantastic programs without the help of our volunteers and we want each one of you to know how greatly we appreciate you!

Library Standing: We don’t have this book but we would be happy to ILL it for you!
Prompted by recurrent dreams, sixteen-year-old Dana Landgrave uncovers an ancient crime that has drawn the same souls together through three lifetimes.
There's nothing sinister about the girl's sunlit twenty-first-century American life in Portsmouth, New Hampshire. Yet, centuries ago, terrible things were done — by someone she knows! Could it be her easygoing, easy-to-look-at boyfriend, Chase? Or her younger brother, Ben, who has been confined to a wheelchair since a school bus accident? What about Gianna, her inscrutable enemy on the yearbook staff? Or her eccentric psychotherapist, Dr. Sprague?
As Dana summons courage to reenter the past, each incarnation propels her to new discoveries — and new suspicions — until the threads of all three lives converge in a devastating revelation.
