Former First Lady Laura Bush has been receiving quite a bit of attention and, with her two daughters, made a visit to the Oprah television show this week to discuss her new book, "Spoken From the Heart."
Patrons of the local library now have a chance to check out the Bush literary effort and see for themselves what the interest is all about.
Brown said many of the books just received at the library have been on the New York Times' best-seller list. If the weather is too hot to be outdoors, avid readers can settle down in the cooler confines of their homes and enjoy reading this weekend.
Brown noted that the latest shipment of 25 fiction and non-fiction books includes Glen Beck's "The Overton Window"; James Patterson's "Private," and Danielle Steele's "Family Ties."
Other new books just received include the following:
"Live To Tell," by Lisa Gardner; "The Glass Rainbow," by James Lee Burke; Lee Child's "61 Hours; "Fly Away Home," by Jennifer Weiner; "The Passage,"by Justin Cronin; "Sizzling Sixteen" by Janet Evanovich."
"A Stranger In the Family," by Robert Barnard; "Medium Raw," by Anthony Bourdain; "Chelsea Chelsea Bang Bang," by Chelsea Handler; "The Complete Idiot's Guide the Windows 7" by Paul McFedries.
"Half Broke Horses," by Jeanette Walls; "The Big Short," by Michael Lewis; "The Facebook Effect," by David Kirkpatrick; "Home Team" by Scan Payton; "The Book Thief," by Markus Zusak, and "The Boy on Fairfield Street: How Ted Geisel Grew Up to Become Dr. Seuss," by Kathleen Krull.
The library is located on the first floor of the Memorial Building, behind the courthouse. It is open from 8:30 a.m. until 4:30 p.m. on Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday and Friday of each week. The library is open from 1 p.m. to 6:30 p.m. each Thursday. It remains closed on Saturday and Sunday.
Brown invites calls to the library, (304) 235-6029, and said the staff stands ready to help reading enthusiasts find the type of books they most enjoy.
