Again a reminder that ever library can and should be suggesting horror all year long. We are targeting summer because that is when we get the highest number of leisure readers into the library. You can use our suggestions and resources anytime of year though.
Here are some of the updates to the resource page to help you as you work with potential horror readers:
- Our podcast partner Ladies of the Fright Summer Scares is covering our selections in detail with committee members:
- LOTF Episode 32: Summer Scares 1 with Carolyn Ciesla
- covers the adult selections and discusses the program in general
- Committee member Grady Hendrix gave our selected authors the same 6 questions. See their answers to get a sense of the personalities behind the books and to gather even more reading suggestions. Feel free to use these interviews on your websites, social media, and with patrons to supplement the Summer Scares Program:
- 4 new interviews were added this week!
- Holly Black
- Slasher Girls and Monster Boys contributors
- Danielle Page
- Jonathan Maberry
- Cat Winters
This is just what is new. You can access all of the information on the Summer Scares Resource and FAQ page at anytime here. It is also listed in the right gutter of the blog for easy access from any page.
