The Teen Summer Reading Program ends the last day of July. To celebrate, we're having a Teen Lock In Finale Party this Friday, July 26 from 8-11 p.m. Teens going into Grades 7-12 are invited to hang out at the Library after hours! We've got a lot of fun stuff planned. Here are just a few things: An epic scavenger hunt, duct tape crafts, book dominoes (though we probably won't break the world record) and Minecraft. Also, Pancheros is providing delicious burritos. Be in Meeting Room A by 8:30 to get locked-in.
After Ultimate Spider-man, I was excited to dive into "The Ultimates," the Avengers group of Earth-6160. Led by Iron Lad, a teenage Tony Stark, the group is framed for a terrorist attack by The Maker's Council and are on the run. Various members are recruited--including Thor, Sif, and Captain America--as we're shown how different this world is to the Marvel Universe we know. The volume ends tragically, and it makes the wait for the continuation even harder! -Brian
