The books for adults have finally arrived! There are lots of great novels for summer reading, some interesting nonfiction books, and quite a few books on the opioid epidemic – including several filled with practical help for those who need it. Everything has been entered into the system, so feel free to place a hold in the catalog, or simply email me or call 763-2875 to reserve one – or several! (Due to time constraints, I’m no longer adding descriptions/images or linking titles to reviews. Sorry about that!)
