The recreational reading exchange seems to be getting a lot of use.  I just put several more books out to fill out the shelves.  The Thanksgiving break is coming (just one week away!) and this is the perfect opportunity to read something just for fun.

There are a wide variety of books in this collection. Just to give you an idea of what’s available for those who haven’t checked it out yet . . .

We have several Anne Tyler books.  Her novels center around interpersonal relationships and the growth of the characters.  She’s consistantly on the best seller list and her book Breathing Lessons won a Pulitzer, the best of both worlds.

There’s a copy of The Hitchhiker’s Guide to the Galaxy by Douglas Adams.  If you appreciate British humor, you have to read this. If you prefer your science fiction a little more serious, there are 3 books from the Dune series also.

For horror lovers we have Anne Rice’s Queen of the Damned. 

If you like romance with a Christian focus, try Janette Oke’s Measure of the Heart.  There are also several other romance novels, including romantic thrillers.

We also have titles by John Grisham, Mary Higgins Clark, Agatha Christie, Danielle Steele, Barbara Kingsolver, Nicholas Sparks, James Patterson, and Nora Roberts. 

If you prefer non-fiction, we have books for you too.  There is a biography of Cary Grant, a copy of Chicken Soup for the Soul, and a copy of The Purpose Driven Life by Rick Warren, just for starters.

 The Recreational Reading books are located on the second floor of the library just past the help desk.
