We've picked Attachments by Rainbow Rowell as our next book discussion book. It's a laugh out loud 1999 office drama, centered around Lincoln, a newly hired Internet Security Officer, whose job requires him to read his coworkers emails. Enter Beth and Jennifer, two email chatty coworkers who continue to break company email rules with their ongoing banter, and Lincoln just can't seem to stop reading it.

Rowell has woven a tale of friendship, love, trust, and hope, using authentic 90's voices in a time when the world was just on the brink of information overload. It's a quick read and  is available for download on the Libby app. Join us on August 19 at 7:30pm for "On The Same Page" with Debbie and Nadine, as we discuss the novel and our favorite memories from 1999 and Y2K.

We are making our way (virtually) across the country to Oceanside, California! For every 10 books that are rated in our summer reading club, we'll travel 100 miles. To date, we have journeyed 900 miles to Nashville, Tennesse where we are taking a stop to see the sites.

Visit the Reading Roadtrip page on Paging Oceanside and take a virtual tour via Google Earth.  Learn some cool fun facts about Nashville. Visit the Grand Ole Opry, the Country Music Hall of Fame, and more. Click the button for Nashville and then watch the virtual tour!

​We've got more stops along the way, so keep reading, and keep walking my friends! We are tracking the miles.... 

Can’t submit a review online? 
No worries! Please call the library and speak to Briana about the book you would like to rate and review. We aren’t able to accept paper reviews, but that doesn't mean you can’t participate! So, give us a call so we can enter you in the weekly summer reading raffle!

We hope you had a great 4th of July weekend! We know one person who is having a winning week and that's our Making Waves member Catherine! Catherine was last week's raffle winner and we are super excited for her. Congrats to Catherine! 
What is on your bookshelf this summer? Are you looking for something new and exciting to read, but aren't sure what to select? Worry no more, fellow reader. Your friendly neighborhood librarians are here for you. Fill out a Curbside Request Form with your favorite genres, authors, and any other important details and we'll put together a bundle of great books for you. Best of all, you can pick them up completely contact-less and curbside. It's like having your own personal librarian shopper. 
Don't forget to keep submitting your book ratings. Not only do you get entered into our weekly raffles like our winner Catherine, but we are making our way across the country (virtually) on our Reading Roadtrip. Every 10 books rated by members gets us another 100 miles to our goal of Oceanside California.
We can do it together, Oceanside! Happy reading, everyone!
