Bev’s Book Beat
A good book should leave you . . . slightly
exhausted at the end. You live several lives while
reading it. –William Styron
Hooray! March is here and with it comes
the promise of some warmer weather . . .
though the cold snowy weather was great for
cozying up with a good book.
When one of my favorite authors comes
out with a new book, I get excited. Here are a
few that I am looking forward to:
Alex Berenson introduced us to his main
character, John Wells in The Faithful Spy,
then followed up with The
Ghost War. Here we get to go
on another thriller ride with his
new one, The Silent Man. What
Wells needs to find out is who
has the highly enriched uranium
that the Russians lost. Let’s remember that
Wells likes to devote his time to fighting evil
and keeping America safe . . . and he does it
well. As long as I know that there are people
like John Wells keeping me safe, I sleep better
at night.
Robert B. Parker brings back
Jesse Stone in Night and Day. I
know that some think Parker
just calls it in, but you know
when you start a Parker you will
be finished in a day or two – he’s
your light snack when you want something
easy and fast to read.
David Baldacci brings back
Sean King and Michelle Maxwell
from Simple Genius in his new
one, First Family. Years ago,
when the President was a senator,
King saved his life. Now the first
family needs his help again, which begs the
question, will secrets from the past come out
in the future?
With Care, she demonstrates why. Every parent
wants a healthy, perfect child but what happens
when your child isn’t perfect or even healthy?
With her usual poignancy, Picoult takes us into
the heart of a family that gives us insight into
how each one deals with the drama.
Michael Connelly brings back newsman
Jack McEvoy in his new one, The
Scarecrow. McEvoy was in Connelly’s first
book, The Poet (one of my all
time favorite books). With the
newspaper’s budget cuts,
McEvoy is losing his job so he
decides to go out on top. The
killer he is tracking has always
been one step ahead of whoever
makes a move against him . . . so who’s
tracking who?
FYI: An interesting new way to read books
is making an appearance. Graphic novels for
adults have been coming into their own in
recent years. A graphic novel is a type of comic
book with a complex story line but they have
pictures in them to move the story line along.
While they have been around for years, more
people have discovered them and they are
making a niche for themselves. Let me know
what you think about graphic novels – would
you like the Library to establish a collection?
Great news! The library has purchased an
Amazon Kindle. The Kindle supports books,
magazines and newspapers. Stop by my desk
and I will explain how to use it. The Kindle
can be checked out for a month and the
Library will download material for you to
read, free of charge. Come on by and see what
it’s all about.
Thanks to all of you who signed up for
Cozy Up With a Good Book! We had over 50
individuals sign up!
Remember to check out my book blog:
www.bevsbooks-bw.blogspot.com for more
information about books, movies, music . . .
There are so many popular authors who
have new books coming out this spring!
. . . keep an eye out for:
Clive Cussler – Corsair
Lee Child – Gone Tomorrow
(Jack Reacher #13)
John Sandford – Wicked Prey
Danielle Steel – One Day at a Time
Brad Thor – Apostle
Peter Robinson – All the Colors of
Darkness
Lincoln Child – Terminal Freeze
Suffolk
Historic
Newspapers
The public libraries in Suffolk County have united to digitize
local historic newspapers and make them available to you online.
This searchable collection of Suffolk’s newspapers dates back to
1839. Articles can be saved to your computer, printed, and
emailed. The project is ongoing and other local historic
newspapers are in the process of being added to the collection
which currently includes the following papers:
The Corrector, Sag Harbor, 1839-1871
The Long Islander, Huntington, 1839-1925
South Side Signal, Babylon, 1869-1879
Long Island Traveler, Cutchogue, 1872-1898
Sag Harbor Express, 1885-1898
Suffolk County News, Sayville, 1888-1923
Port Jefferson Echo, 1892-1931
You can access this rich collection by going to the Library’s
homepage www.mattlibrary.org, click on Local History and then
click on Newspapers.

• Galileo’s Daughter: A Historical Memoir
of Science, Faith and Love by Dava Sobel
Tuesday, May 19th 7:00 p.m.

• A Salty Piece of Land by Jimmy Buffett
Monday, March 23rd 7:00 p.m.
Looking for a place to chill? Hideout? Come
along with Tully Mars to the island of Cayo
Loco and just enjoy. As Jimmy Buffett is fond
of saying . . . paradise is just a state of mind
(and it’s always 5 p.m. somewhere).
Library Receives Grant
The Library recently received a grant, thanks to the
efforts of Senator Ken LaValle, for $6,500 for the
purchase of a digital microfilm reader/printer.
The new machine gives staff members and patrons
the ability to digitize microfilmed records and instantly
e-mail them to anyone anywhere.
The Library was given the complete archives of
The Suffolk Times, on microfilm 10 years ago. Since
that time, microfilm from the Long Island Traveler
has been added to the collection. The Library was also
given the archival records of the Mattituck Presbyterian Church, some of
which date back to the early 1800's. The Library is able to offer access to
these rich resources, thanks in large part to this grant.
The microfilm archives and new reader are available for use during
Library hours.

Sunday, April 26th 4:00 p.m.
Concert will be held at the Mattituck Presbyterian Church
Free of charge, all welcome!
Organized in 1994, the Recorder
Orchestra of New York performs on Long
Island, New York City, Connecticut and in
July of 2001 completed a highly successful
tour of England. Orchestra members,
including several musicians from our own
North Fork, play instruments ranging from
the smallest recorder – the six-inch
garklein, to the very large seven-foot
contrabass. The rich, sweet sound of the
instruments is adaptable to a wide musical
repertoire from Renaissance and Baroque
periods through contemporary music.
The concert is being held at the
Mattituck Presbyterian Church because of
the acoustic quality the Church sanctuary
has to offer. Refreshments will be served
following the concert. All are welcome to
this unique and outstanding performance.
