May in the Library: Volunteers’ Favorite Books

by Anne Newins

In a blatant imitation of bookstores’ sales tactics, I naively requested a handful of library volunteers to suggest some of their favorite books for the May display, anticipating five or ten suggestions per person.  Instead they sent scores of titles.  Trying to select a few representative samples, as is my wont, was impossible.  Be assured that the display will be eclectic, including a host of genres.  You will find history-true and fiction, mysteries, quirky stories, best sellers, old books, new books, and on and on.  We hope that you also will consider some books that are under appreciated and deserve a wider audience.  Enjoy!
