Mystery and Thriller Take Over for Halloween

As a result of a huge cache of mysteries and thrillers donated by our neighbor Denise recently, we’ve decided to do a Little Free Library “take over” for books in these genres.

For the week of Halloween from 10/25-11/1 we’ve replaced all the books on the upper shelves with mystery and thriller novels. There’s lots of John Grisham, Dan Brown, David Baldacci, Gillian Flynn, James Patterson, Brad Thor, Dean Koontz, J.K. Rowling, P.D. James, and many others. In all it totals to more than 38 new books in the library today! In fact, it was so many books, we’ve had to make some room on our lower shelf to fit them all in.

After the week is over, we’ll go back to a more balanced selection of fiction and nonfiction that we’ve always had, though we’ll surely keep what’s left and rotate it through the library in the near future.

Come and get them while they’re hot!

 

New Fiction and Children’s Books

Many of the new book donations from our 2 month anniversary extravaganza are disappearing, but that doesn’t mean that readers aren’t leaving some interesting new books behind. Since yesterday, there have been a few interesting donations including:

We’ve also had some additional mysteries and thrillers donated (in addition to those from Denise recently) for our upcoming Little Free Library “take-over”.  For the week of Halloween from 10/25-11/1 we’ll replace all the books on the upper shelves with mystery and thriller novels.

This past weekend, we’ve received a bunch of new children’s easy reader chapter books including:

As always, our updated list of available books can be found on our GoodReads shelf.

Get ready for a whole new library selection!

Stockpiling

For the last week, we’ve been stockpiling a few donations along with a large cache of other acquisitions in anticipation of a major release of new books to the library.

Sometime in the coming week or so (our 2 month anniversary perhaps?), we’ll be removing some of the books that have been sitting stagnant and replace them with a whole new selection of books.  With over 30 new books, it will represent the largest one-time batch of new books since our grand opening on August 9th.

Now’s your chance to borrow that great piece of fiction you’ve been eyeing before it takes a vacation from our library to visit another nearby Little Free Library.

For those who’ve been plowing through borrowed books, now’s also the time to finish up your last read to swap it for something new. Feel free to write a quick review into our guestbook to let others know what a good book it was.

Do you have any books to add to the collection?

We welcome donations at any time. But if you want to be part of the upcoming major release, feel free to leave your donation in our mailbox (or if you have several and they won’t fit, leave them on our landing in one of the plastic bags to protect them from the weather.)
