Spring is in the air, somewhere! While it appears to be ignoring the North Country so far, it gives us a bit more indoor time to sit by the fire and enjoy some good reading. Our rakes will be found and used soon enough!  New selections this week include an impressive collection of thrillers and mysteries by some of the best writers in that genre. Three biographies also round out this week’s new arrivals!  Starred * items are on the New York Times Best Seller List.

Trigger Warning*   by Neil Gaiman

Blood Infernal  by James Rollins

Motive  by Jonathan Kellerman

Endangered  by C.J. Box

Did you know that the Wead Library has a really strong collection of books about knitting? Many books have patterns and others are more instructional.  This week there are two new arrivals on this topic.  If you have caught the bug to “cast on” with your knitting, please come check them out. You are also welcome to join our knitting and craft group, “Needles and Hooks” that meets on the first and third Saturdays of the month here at the Wead Library at 10:00-11:00AM.  It’s a lot of fun and there are some really experienced knitters and crafters to help you along.  Here are our non-fiction selections.

Non-Fiction:

I am sorry to think I have raised a timid child  by Kent Russell

Classic knits  by Marianna Isager

Knitting workbook   by Debbie Bliss

Thieves of state: why corruption threatens global security by Sarah Chayes

American ghost: a family’s haunted past in the desert Southwest by Hannah Nordhouse

Pioneer girl: the annotated autobiography   by Laura Ingalls Wilder (biography)

Richard John Neuhaus: a life in the public square  by Randy Boyagoda (biography)

All the wrong places: a life lost and found  by Philip Connors (biography)

As always, reserving a selection is merely a click or phone call away. We can be reached at 518-483-5251.  If you have your library card handy, you can also click in the right sidebar on “Log in, search and renew”  to make you request. Your pin number is the last four digits of your phone number on record with the library.

Happy Reading!

The Staff of the Wead Library
