Big Library Read: 5th ed.

BLRlogo
OverDrive asked, you answered!  Thousands of readers across the globe cast their vote to choose the titles for this fall's Big Library Read. The title that topped them all? Anatomy of a Misfit by Andrea Portes! 
AnatomyOfAMisfit
Subjects: Teen Fiction, Romance
Description: In this Mean Girls meets The Perks of Being a Wallflower tale, narrator Anika Dragomir is the third most popular girl at Pound High School. But inside, she knows she’s a freak; she can’t stop thinking about former loner Logan McDonough, who showed up on the first day of tenth grade hotter, bolder, and more mysterious than ever. Logan is fascinating, troubled and off-limits. The Pound High queen bee will make Anika’s life hell if she’s seen with him. So Anika must choose–ignore her feelings and keep her social status? Or follow her heart and risk becoming a pariah. Which will she pick? And what will she think of her choice when an unimaginable tragedy strikes, changing her forever? An absolutely original new voice in YA in a story that will start important conversations–and tear at your heart.
What is Big Library Read?
A worldwide digital version of a local book club, and an opportunity for us to introduce (or maybe re-introduce) our digital library to users just like yourself! Libraries, including East Central Regional Library, have already enjoyed great success engaging thousands of new and current users with Big Library Read. 
This time Big Library Read is even MORE exciting, because you can be among the first to read a title JUST released on September 2!  Check it out.

October 13 – October 28, 2014.
How can I participate?
