We Need to Talk About Kevin
by Lionel Shriver
“In some respects, Weezie is me. Like her, I thought I was
happily married — almost 19 years and two kids under my belt. Then
one day (and there’s always a “then one day” in life), I
found out my husband was in love with another woman and didn’t
want me anymore. One thing led to another and I whacked him with
a Dr. Seuss book that was sitting on my coffee table.
When I called the police to have him removed from the house,
they removed me instead and charged me with assault. Oh, and let’s
not forget I also bit a cop’s thumb in the process
(something I’m not proud of in the least).”

We are dreamers of dreams, makers of worlds.
What’s your spark? Where’s your inspiration?
Find it this summer at the TD Summer Reading Club,

create, hack, tinker and innovate. With books and

fail and fly and fall and fly again. This summer, it’s all
about connectivity and creativity at the TD Summer
Reading Club, so bring yourself, your family, your
friends and spark something great!

Donations of books are always appreciated
at the library, and have been especially
helpful in developing our new Bookmobile
collection. We have, however, received so
many book donations recently that our
shelves are nearly full! We will still gratefully
accept donations of newer items in good
condition (especially picture books, books for
middle school readers and for young adults),
but older materials in poor shape cannot be
used by the library and so we respectfully
request that these items not be brought in.
Thank you kindly for your cooperation!
