Some great staff favorites this month! Amy our Children’s Librarian talks about the Libba Bray YA novel, The Diviners (2012) and if you haven’t discovered it yet…the ever popular YA Jackie Faber series. Yay for pirates! Yay for pirates who identify as a girl!
It’s Liz’s first time on the podcast. She’s our new Community Engagement Librarian and plans adult programs and is our marketing and social media specialist. Liz is chatting about two books that were on our monthly book discussion list, Before We Were Yours by Lisa Wingate (2017), a novel based on the real life story of Georgia Tann, director of an adoption organization, kidnapped and sold children to the highest bidder; and The Tiger’s Wife by Tea Obreht (2011) which blends contemporary realism with a village legend and has an ending which surprised Liz.
