Karen's Fall Reading Recommendations

I hope everyone on campus is now settled for Fall Semester 2016!

I wanted to celebrate the Fall season, not just for cooler temperatures, but for its traditions, celebrations and beautiful changes to Mother Nature. With that in mind, in our Library’s collection I have found a couple of inspirational books and a well-known essay by Henry David Thoreau. I searched some fun facts about Fall, and interesting information about the Autumn Equinox. There is even a playlist of great worship songs for autumn--I got you covered!

Come in and take a look in our display cases – you might read or see something you never knew or saw before!

Karen's Summer Reading Recommendations

I don't know what everyone likes to read, so I've chosen a few genres which I think would make good summer reading--whether at the beach or lounging in the back yard.

1. The Five People You Meet In Heaven by Mitch Albom

He is the author of the #1 New York Times bestseller, Tuesdays With Morrie.

2. Out of the Silent Planet (first book of trilogy) by C.S. Lewis

Science Fiction is always a goodie!

3. Minding the Manor: The Memoir of a 1930's English Kitchen Maid by Millie Moran

It's interesting to see how life was "way back when!"

4. The House on Tradd Street by Karen White

A little bit of mystery and a little bit of supernatural! This was also a selection of the Readers Club of America.

5. Yarn to Go (A "Yarn Retreat" Mystery) by Betty Hechtman

I love mysteries--and I love doing needlework!
