Library Notes
La Conner Regional Library - We have had several requests for help with e-readers. Some of you must have gotten them for Christmas. We are scheduling two Gadget Night sessions. Wed., Jan 30 and Wed. Feb. 6. We are also scheduling Basic Computer Classes starting February 7, 14 and 21 from 9 a.m. - 10:45. Space is limited so stop by the library and sign up for either Gadget Night or the Computer Classes or both!When you are in next, you might want to check out one of our new books. Here a few you might be interested in.Richard Burton Diariesby Richard Burton. This volume publishes Burton's extensive personal diaries in their entirety for the first time. His writings encompass many years--from 1939, when he was still a teenager, to 1983, the year before his death--and they reveal him in his most private moments, pondering his triumphs and demons, his loves and his heartbreaks. The diary entries appear in their original sequence, with annotations to clarify people, places, books, and events Burton mentions. From these hand-written pages emerges a multi-dimensional man, no mere flashy celebrity.Who I Am by Peter Townshend. This clearly written, straightforward book (separated into three "Acts") lays out, in a matter of fact style, everything that has made (and is still making) Townshend who he is. He is at times brutally honest in his writing. At other times he seems to be more removed from the events he talks about. You may at times agree or disagree with what he writes. But taken together, this is one of the most honest attempts to paint a picture of one's self and the things that he's experienced, that any artist has written.Rod: the Autobiographyby Rod Stewart. Now after more than five decades in the spotlight, he is finally ready to take a candid and romping look back at his life both on and off the stage. From his humble British roots to his hell-raising years on tour with his bandmates, not forgetting his great loves (including three marriages and eight children) and decades touring the world, Rod delivers a riveting ride through one of rock's most remarkable lives.

Library Notes
La Conner Regional Library - Christmas is just around the corner so let me wish you a very Merry Christmas! The library will be closing at 3 p.m. Christmas Eve and closed all day Christmas.To get you into the holiday mood (if you aren't already), here are some new books you might want to check out next time you are in.Angels at the Table by Debbie Macomber. Lucie and Aren meet after bumping into each other in Times Square on New Year's Eve. They immediately hit it off : Lucie is a burgeoning chef and Aren is a respected food critic. But just as quickly as they're brought together, a twist of fate tears them apart, with no way to reconnect. A year later, Lucie is the chef of an acclaimed new restaurant and Aren is a successful columnist for a major New York newspaper. For all the time that's passed, the two have not forgotten their one serendipitous evening--and neither have Angels Shirley, Goodness, Mercy, and Will. To reunite the young couple, the angels cook up a brilliant plan: mix true love, a second chance, and a generous sprinkle of mischief to create a Christmas miracle.Christmas in Cornwell by Marcia Willett. A new year dawns, and everything seems to be falling into place for Dossie. Her son Clem and his adorable five-year-old son Jakey have moved to Cornwall to be closer to her. She runs her own successful catering business. All she needs now is some better luck in her romantic life. Complementing Dossie's rather unconventional family set-up is the wonderfully eccentric Janna: a warm-hearted, generous woman who looks after the quirky nuns of the local convent - and little Jakey. With humour, kindness and the support of friendship, they form a tight bond.But the Sisters' life as they know it is thrown into doubt when an avaricious property developer starts prowling around their beautiful, historic home.Merry Christmas: Alex Cross by James Patterson. It's Christmas Eve and Detective Alex Cross has been called out to catch someone who's robbing his church's poor box. That mission behind him, Alex returns home to celebrate with Bree, Nana, and his children. The tree decorating is barely underway before his phone rings again--a horrific hostage situation is quickly spiraling out of control. Away from his own family on the most precious of days, Alex calls upon every ounce of his training, creativity, and daring to save another family. Alex risks everything--and he may not make it back alive on this most sacred of family days. Read more...
