Summer’s Over and the LVA Library is Ready!

Greetings LVA! Like the headline says, the library is ready for you to come and visit. Be sure to see all of the new books on The New Book Shelves. There’s something for everyone (unfortunately there aren’t enough new books for everyone): monologue books for Theater, instrument books, dance books, and science books to just get started. Hey, there are new fiction titles too. Let me know with a comment below if there are any books, new or old that you want to see in the library.

What did you read this summer?

I know everyone doesn’t like to read, but I think that’s because you haven’t found the right book for you. Currently, I’m reading The Devil in the White City by Erik Larson. It’s about the Chicago World’s Fair in 1893 and the serial killer H. M. Holmes who was active in Chicago at the same time. It’s just no one knew it. It’s a very interesting book. He makes all of the characters come alive in a surprising way, surprising because it’s nonfiction. Here’s a video of the author discussing the book.
