Coming soon ...

I’ve been looking at some new books to add to the library’s collection. Here’s a preview of some things to come. You can click on the title to go to the Noosa Library catalogue, then use your library card number and PIN to reserve the book when it arrives.

Glint by Ann Coburn. “Glint blurs the boundaries between our world and another with two fantastic adventures running in parallel.” Read the review from Reading Matters.

Persephone: secrets of a teenage goddess by Jennifer Cook. You may already know the ancient Greek myth of Persephone, the daughter of Demeter – allegedly abducted and taken to the Underworld by Hades. In this modern reconstruction, Persephone tells her own version of the story.

Surviving Amber by Charlotte Calder. Reading Time magazine said: “…with a keen ear for contemporary teenager language [the author] tapped into the heartaches, embarrassments and anxieties of adolescent relationships … a satisfying and fast-paced read”. What do you think?

Mad arm of the Y by David McRobbie. “Here is a story that will take hold of you … and not let you go”! David McRobbie is one of the 10 Queensland authors whose books are being promoted in the U.S. If you have audio, you may still be able to listen to David’s interview on ABC Queensland

The curse of Zohreh by Sophie Masson. The author’s own website “will lead you down the path of incredible stories”, and if you click here you will be transported to her own explanation of this exciting adventure full of “revenge, magic, love and hatred – and a curse so powerful it has lasted for centuries!”

Mean spirits [The Mediator #3] by Meg Cabot. According to Susannah Simon – the sassiest ghost-hunter ever! – “Most people do not end up as ghosts. God forbid. If that were true, my social life would be SO over.” More about Meg Cabot – look here
