Prime Does Peeps

prime (a.k.a. ed) — Mon, 10 Jul 2006 16:48:04 -0400

Peeps is a really sweet work of fiction. Every other chapter gives a v v in depth description of the live cycle of a parasite. It was great. Though i suggest it for older teens because of the sex and drinking that are the basis for the story's beginning. All in all it is a fun read that i think you should all check out. It is available at Mary Cheney. Later, ed

Prime Does Summer Reading

prime (a.k.a. ed) — Mon, 03 Jul 2006 16:55:10 -0400

This is the 7th summer that we have done a program for teens here at the library. For the past 5 we have had a t-shirt that has promoted reading in a foreign (or fictional) language. This year i decided to make a contest out of it. The logo is based on another fictional language from a series of books. Every 2 books that you read over the summer gets you a guess at what it says. Every correct answer gets you an entry into a drawing for a 1Gb iPod Nano. In addition you also get to enter a second drawing every 10 books that you read. So the more you read the better your chances are of winning. Contact me if you have any questions. ed

Prime does Mirrormask

prime (a.k.a. ed) — Fri, 16 Jun 2006 10:09:26 -0400

Mirrormask is actually a book that is based on a movie. It was written by Neil Gaiman who is an amazing writer. But almost better than that is that it is illustrated by Dave McKean who was responsible for the covers of Coralina and the Sandman Series. I would suggest taking a look at the book and the movie. And remember if you yell at a book and throw it to the ground it very well might give you a ride to come see us here at the library. That and you might get to catch your very own library book using a butterfly net. Be caref]ul not to scare them or they could shed all of their pages

Prime does Half Moon Investigations by Eoin Colfer

prime (a.k.a. ed) — Tue, 16 May 2006 14:19:10 -0400

Want to be a private investigator. Well find out what happens when a sixth grader actually gets a PI license and his life is change. Whether or not this is going to be a series i can't tell. But i definitely want to know what Fletcher "Half" Moon gets into next.

Prime does Artemis Fowl by Eoin Colfer

prime (a.k.a. ed) — Mon, 17 Apr 2006 13:48:04 -0400

What a great book this is. I have listened to all four of them. It isn't uncommon that when i get to my destination i linger a bit to hear just a wee bit more of the story. The narrator does a brilliant job with the accents too.

Messenger by Lois Lowry

prime (a.k.a. ed) — Mon, 10 Apr 2006 14:26:34 -0400

Microserfs

prime (a.k.a. ed) — Wed, 16 Nov 2005 13:35:00 -0500

Microserfs by Douglas Coupland is a satirical look at the Microsoft culture during the early 90s. It's absolutely brilliant. The comparison between MS and Apple's employee culture is fantasatic.
