MARCH
Lots of sequels and continuations of beloved series this month-- and a brand new book (series starter?) from Ally Carter! March is a hard month because it feels like it should be spring, but we're actually SOOOOO far away. Grab one of these great YA books and wait out the winter weather.
If you're ever looking for recommendations, email me at bmcintyre@madisonpubliclibrary.org. I LOVE to talk books!

Tradition
by Brandon Kiely
Two students find themselves up against generations of tradition and priviledge when they challenge their prestigious New England boarding school's shady practices surrounding sexism and consent. Kiely, author of the quiet but spectacular The Gospel of Winter (2014), about abuse in a Catholic parish, has a gift for exposing the layers of deeply corrupt systems in thoughful, realitic way. Should be great.
