Week 5  Assignment 2

Combing through all those great new and recommended lists!

At a glance, The New York Times Bestseller list is a cornucopia of wonderful ideas and choices.
At Woodlawn, many of our patrons enjoy new releases by James Patterson, David Baldacci and Danielle Steel and these are presented with a brief summary of the storyline.  There is an Overview on the left side that lists choices in Print/Ebook, HC, Paperback, E Books and Children.  This is a good quick reference.


Also, several of our patrons will mention the Oprah Magazine edition that has recommended "Beach Reads,' and I personally as well as professionally check this every year.  There are always new authors to explore.


I also explored  the People Magazine Book page and found it to be a good resource too.  They list their choices for summer like this:


"10 New Books Everyone Should Read This Summer"
"15 Beach Reads to Bask in This Summer."
"The Best June Books for Kids of All Ages."
"10 Books to Read Lying on the Beach...Or If You Wish You Were."


When I see headings like that.....I immediately look over the lists for that perfect beach or porch sitting summer read!
