Lately, my reading time has been spent in Westeros , a world created by George R. R. Martin for his series, A Song of Ice and Fire . My son is a longtime Martin fan, and many library customers are as well: all are anxiously awaiting Book 5 in the set. Meanwhile, HBO is producing a TV series based on...

I thought you might like to know about some new titles from authors myself and others have written about here before. Rene Gutteridge has a new book titled Listen that should be arriving at a library near you any day now. Blog writer this.is.not.here@evpl wrote about Rene Gutteridge's Boo series...
Back in January, I wrote a little bit about Lisa Lutz 's Spellman series. Last night I finished the third installment, Revenge of the Spellmans . It is EXCELLENT! This has become my new favorite series, since I've begun to grow tired of Janet Evanovich 's Plum series. Private investigator...

The books focus on a wild private investigator named Izzy Spellman, but her whole family (mother, father, older brother...
I am always skeptical of sequels. The more I love the first book, the more skeptical I am. This does not mean I don't look forward to sequels, just that I try not to get my hopes up too high. Knit Two by Kate Jacobs is a good book which is fantastic, because I loved The Friday Night Knitting Club...
I have never knitted and rarely do I crochet. So, when I first heard about The Friday Night Knitting Club by Kate Jacobs, I dismissed it as just another of the trendy knitting-themed novels to hit the shelves since yarn crafts started making their big comeback. I just wasn't interested in reading...

Usually meaning that I will be tired the next day because I couldn't be bothered to put the book down to go to sleep. But, there is one thing...
