Listen to what your fellow library-goers are saying about what they are reading. There are so many books to choose from - in May the Main Library alone ordered approximately 119 new adult nonfiction books and 220 new adult fiction books. Whether you like Patterson, Turtledove, Evanovich, Oates or Picoult, there's something for everyone. And with prizes like Phillies tickets and merchandise, restaurant gift certificates, and tickets to Sovereign Center events; there's no reason not to pick up a stack of books and a stack of entry forms and start reading!

All about Evie by Beth Ciotta
Recently divorced Evie Parish is over 40, an unemployed actress and desperate for a regular paycheck. While in her agent's office, an acting positionbecomes available on a couples only cruise ship. There are some risks involved if she takes the job, and there's no script to follow. Her role... Sugar Dupont, an ex-Vegas showgirl on her honeymoon with her wealthy husband, Charles Dupont. Charles, a senior citizen with trimmed beard, wired framed round glasses, a belly like the Pillsbury doughboy and a voice like Sean Connery. Wonder what Charles looks like without the makeup? I think Evie's gonna love this acting gig!
Diary of a Serial Killer by Ed Gaffney
Ed Gaffney, husband of bestselling aither Suzanne Brockmann, pens his third novel in the mystery genre. Gaffney was a defense attorney before the writing bug bit him and his "lawyerese" shows on each page. The "diary" of this serial killer is gruesome; the plot contains many twists and turns that will keep you guessing until the final pages. I would have enjoyed a longer epilogue to calm my nerves. This is a godd story and style for the male reader.
