Book Fair Wish List
If you would like to see a book from the BOOK FAIR fair added to the library collection, just add a note to this wish list in Padlet and let me know. I can try to make it happen.
BOOK FAIR OPENS TODAY!!
Start shopping now for books from the online book fair! Books ship directly to your home for free on orders over $30 ($4.99 flat rate shipping if under $30). Your purchases help support the Skyview Library. If you don’t want to buy a book, I’ve created a library wish list so that YOU can select books you’d like to see in the library. From the Wish List, simply find a book, click “Add to List” and it will be automatically saved.
Big Library Read
Big Library Read connects readers around the world with the same book at the same time. Borrow Reverie today through Sora with no holds or waiting. Available through Nov. 16. Note: Contains mature themes. Ages 14 & up.
Description: All Kane Montgomery knows for certain is that the police found him half-dead in the river. He can’t remember how he got there, what happened after, and why his life seems so different now. And it’s not just Kane who’s different, the world feels off, reality itself seems different. So when three of his classmates claim to be his friends and the only people who can tell him what’s truly going on, he doesn’t know what to believe or who he can trust. But as he and the others are dragged into unimaginable worlds that materialize out of nowhere—the gym warps into a subterranean temple, a historical home nearby blooms into a Victorian romance rife with scandal and sorcery—Kane realizes that nothing in his life is an accident, and only he can stop their world from unraveling.
