Recommended Read
The Hate U Give 
by Angie Thomas

“This book offers a searing look at police brutality and the Black Lives Matter movement - all told through the eyes of a teenage girl. This YA book is equal parts funny, sad, empowering and hopeful, and even as an adult, I absolutely loved it!”—Celine, Programs, Events & Outreach

 

Overheard at the Library

A young girl walked into the Main Library and said, "Wow.  This place is heaven!" 
-Alicia
