We have gotten several new non-fiction books that you might be interested in. The first set is entitled Eat This Not That. One is about simple food swaps to help you lose weight, the other shows items in the supermarket and compares the different brands and which is less fattening. Also we just received two books that have several mnemonics to help you remember things, we all remember “i before e except after c” and “thirty days has September…”. These books are full of old school ways to remember things, a fun look back at our school days.

Well, here it is March 2nd and I had forgotten to post our new materials for February!!! Be sure to look and see the new Grisham, Patterson, some new Vickie McDonough’s and more.
I have been reading quite a bit in February so let’s see what we have. The Year we Disappeared by Cylin Busby & John Busby is a father/daughter true story about a young police officer who is hunted down and shot and survives the attack but the shooter is not found right away and what this does to him and his family. I also finally read the story by Will Hobbs entitled Crossing the Wire, a story set after 9/11 about a young boy who after his father’s death in California on a job site is forced by poverty to try to cross the US/Mexico border illegally to get work and send money home to his Mom and family. Also don’t forget to get a copy of the One Book, One State read of The Virgin of Small Plains by Nancy Pickard, a Kansas author that is always a good read.
