Ames Library Notes: Books for the newly adults and the in-between ages

Ames Library Notes: Books for the newly adults and the in-between ages
Keirra McFadden, Ames Public Library
Special to the Ames Tribune
Reading has always been a part of my life. For as long as I can remember I have been able to bring the words in a novel to life in my head. In elementary school, I started off with Junie B. Jones books and never looked back. Between middle school and high school, I found some of the best young adult novels, and I have continued to read them ever since. Now that I am 20 and in college, I have started to notice a problem: I feel slightly too old for young adult books and slightly too young for most adult books. ....

Ames Library Notes: Asian American and Pacific Islander Heritage Month

Megan Klein-Hewett, Ames Public Library
Special to the Ames Tribune
Each May the library honors Asian American and Pacific Islander Heritage Month. Heritage months provide us with an opportunity to reflect on our own cultural experiences or learn from experiences that are unlike our own. Here are some great books to help you view different e Asian American experience through literature. Take some time this month to explore the world through these titles!
You are probably familiar with Celeste Ng, author of “Little Fires Everywhere,” but you may not have read her debut novel, “Everything I Never Told You.” Set in the 1970s in small-town Ohio, the novel follows a Chinese American family whose favorite daughter, Lydia, has recently died. “Everything I Never Told You” explores cultural divisions, and the ways in which families struggle to understand one another. ....

Ames Library Notes: Monsters in books and film

Ames Library Notes: Monsters in books and film
Ashley Wilson, Ames Public Library
Special to the Ames Tribune
In either movies or books, a well-presented monster will always win me over. Dragons are my favorite, vampires next, followed by any manifestation of a creature of the deep, then aliens. In my opinion ghosts and paranormal activity do not really count as monsters, and werewolves are just okay; You can try to change my mind on this one, but I have yet to encounter a truly convincing werewolf shapeshifter narrative. Plus, I’m not too keen on the howling.
Dragons take the top prize for me because regardless of their assumed or presented size, they never fail to capture the imagination. “Temeraire” by Naomi Novik is a fan favorite alternative history featuring a captain serving in the Royal Aerial Corps with a dragon as his preferred form of flight. The wyverns in Sarah J. Maas’ “Throne of Glass” series are both clever and fierce, but lend a tendern ....

Ames Library Notes: New Play Together program emphasizes music, movement

Ames Library Notes: New Play Together program emphasizes music, movement
Ben Schrag, Ames Public Library
On the last day of 2020, Ames Public Library rang in the new year with our annual family-friendly Noon Year’s Eve celebration. With a countdown ending at noon instead of midnight, families can get all the fun of a New Year’s Eve countdown and still get a good night’s sleep.
Unlike previous Noon Year’s Eve celebrations, however, this year we met online. We fired up the cameras in our Storytime Room (which has been temporarily converted into a make-shift sound stage and filming studio) and greeted each other through screens. ....
