RRL Reads: Maya's Dance by Helen Signy

I found reading Mayaโ€™s Dance to be an emotional and terrifying ride.
Based on the real-life account of a Holocaust survivor, the story gripped me as it shifted between 1942 Poland and 1990โ€™s Australia, following Mayaโ€™s search for the man who helped her escape.
It was heartbreaking to read the vivid portrayals of the horrors in a N**i labour camp, yet so inspiring to see the incredible power of hope and the human spirit through Mayaโ€™s courage to keep dancing.
To me, this story is a beautiful reminder of the strength we find in art and love, and it serves as a powerful message to us all to never forget.

๐Ÿ“š Legacy by Chris Hammer

The latest instalment in the Martin Scarsden series is another gripping addition to the libraryโ€™s shelves.

MARTIN SCARSDEN IS ON THE RUN. WILL THE DESERT SAVE HIMโ€ฆ OR BURY HIM?

Set against the stark, sun-scorched beauty of outback Australia, Chris Hammer once again proves his talent for bringing landscapes vividly to life. You can almost feel the relentless heat, the vast isolation, and the simmering tension rising off the page as the story unfolds.

This is a novel that doesnโ€™t let up. The pace is fast, the stakes are high, and the story pulls you along at full throttle. I tore through it in no time. A few twists might stretch believability here and there, but honestly, that just adds to the thrill of the ride.

If youโ€™re craving a crime novel thatโ€™s atmospheric, gripping, and seriously hard to put down, Legacy delivers in spades.

๐Ÿ“ฑ Tech Savvy Seniors โ€“ Free Sessions at Your Library!

Do you know someone who could benefit from a little extra support with technology?

Our Tech Savvy Seniors program is running for 5 weeks, starting Thursday 23 April, with sessions held at:
๐Ÿ“ Finley Library
๐Ÿ“ Tocumwal Library

Each week covers a different topic, including:
โœ”๏ธ Cyber Safety
โœ”๏ธ Social Media
โœ”๏ธ Sharing Photos Online
โœ”๏ธ Using an iPad
โœ”๏ธ Online Shopping

๐Ÿ‘‰ If you know someone who could benefit from these sessions, please encourage them to participate. Not everyone weโ€™re trying to reach is on social media, a quick chat or mention to a friend, neighbour or family member could really help.

The Seven Sisters Series by Lucinda Riley.

We have all the books in our collection ready for you to borrow and because theyโ€™ve been so popular, weโ€™ve even added a second copy of each!

โ€œThe Seven Sisters is an epic series (with eight books and almost 6000 pages!) that traces the lives and histories of seven adopted sisters and their beloved father.

Each book follows one sisterโ€™s journey to uncover her heritage, guided by clues left behind by their mysterious father, Pa Salt. Their stories span across the world, revealing the unique paths that brought each sister into this extraordinary family all leading to the final book, which tells his story.โ€ Review by Michaela, Cockburn Libraries
