Great Fall Reads

Love You Hate You Miss You by Elizabeth Scott

          Amy’s self-perception leads to a risky lifestyle.  The consequences of her choices unfold slowly, revealing the complicated layers of her relationships with her best friend, non-friends, boys and parents.  I listened to this on Sunday using the GDL’s Overdrive digital library. 

 

Hunger Games by Suzanne Collins

          This book has been winning all the major awards and receiving accolades from teens and parents.  Michigan teens voted this book number one for the 2009 Thumbs Up award.  The sequel, Catching Fire, is now available for holds (all copies are currently checked out.)  Click here to visit the Teenreads.com interview with the author.   

 

The Tear Collector by Patrick Jones

          My current read.  Like a vampire needs blood, Cassandra Gray needs tears to survive.  Discover why her nomadic great-grandmother, Veronica, moved the family to Lapeer, Michigan.  Mr. Jones grew up in the Flint area and takes his readers to places in and around Flint. He was a page at the GDL Baker Park Branch in Burton.  Find more of his books on the GDL catalog.
