The Sweet Far Thing and
A Book of a Thousand Days
Wednesday, January 30 at 7:00 p.m.
The Sweet Far Thing –the stunning conclusion to the Gemma Doyle trilogy. It has been a year of change since Gemma Doyle arrived at the foreboding Spence Academy. Her mother murdered, her father a laudanum addict, Gemma has relied on an unsuspected strength and has discovered an ability to travel to an enchanted world called the realms, where dark magic runs wild. Despite certain peril, Gemma has bound the magic to herself and forged unlikely new alliances. Now, as Gemma approaches her London debut, the time has come to test these bonds.
Libba Bray is the author of the New York Times bestselling novels A Great and Terrible Beauty and Rebel Angels. She lives in Brooklyn, New York, with her husband, son, and a cat of questionable intelligence.
A Book of a Thousand Days – Set in a medieval Asian land, a classic Brothers Grimm tale is reimagined by a Newbery Honor author. In this completely unique retelling, filled with adventure and romance, drama and disguise, a young maid sacrifices her freedom to accompany her mistress into exile.
Shannon Hale started writing books at age ten and has not stopped, earning an MFA in Creative Writing from the University of Montana sixteen years later, and publishing The Goose Girl, her first book, not long after that. A sometime actress, instructional designer, and missionary, she now makes her home in Salt Lake City, with her super-human husband and her newborn baby.

- We Want Podcasters!
We want to add audio podcasts (created by students) for reviews of popular Young adult books I'd love to have students doing the actual recordings and book reviewing. We have the equipment in the library and we can do it as a team.Who would we like to do this?
