Today in MHS Library

Lit over Lunch (LOL) met today to discuss Miss Peregrine's Home for Peculiar Children. We all enjoyed Ranson Riggs first novel and some have already read Hollow City! We shared the scary moments and marveled at the vintage photographs (by the way, if you listen to the audiobook, be sure to grab a book and look at the pictures).  Joa LaVille brought pizza courtesy of the Friends of the Marshalltown Public Library (Yum)! We talked about genres and can't decide between Mystery, Horror, or Fantasy!

Our LOL for May 12 will be "Poetry as Change, Change as Poetry" and a chance to meet poet and anti-violence activist Purvi Shah, of Brooklyn, who is visiting Iowa with the Grin City Collective of Grinnell College. No preparation will be required to attend this LOL (but make sure to register with Mrs. Inhelder, Mrs. Fritzell, or me). Here is her website, if you want to learn more about her: www.purvipoets.net
