Amee: DVD The Public—Written and Directed by Emilio Estevez. The movie was filmed at the downtown branch of the Public Library
of Cincinnati and Hamilton County. Emilio Estevez stars as a public librarian who helps a population of homeless people stage a occupy
protest at the public library. Thoroughly enjoyed the movie because it spotlights the important role public libraries play in a community.
Karen: Book Woman of Troublesome Creek by Michele Richardson. Set in the 30’s when “Book Women” would ride up into the
mountains to deliver books and reading material.
Mary: The Book Charmer by Karen Hawkins. Story about a sleepy Southern town, two fiercely independent women, and a truly
magical friendship. If you liked Garden Spells by Sarah Addison Allen, you’ll like this book.
Megan: I am really looking forward to reading Maybe This Time by Kasie West. She is one of my favorite YA authors. This is her
newest book.
