This week we received a selection of books by , an author who has been getting popular with our borrowers recently.

We also had two brand new children's books arrive.

The weather didnt know what it wanted to do on Thursday, wind, rain, drizzle, sun and cloud- just another day in Salcombe's microclimate 😅🌦💨

Can you help us share the books everyone wants to read this month? 📚

There’s high demand for our 10 most wanted titles, and many eager customers are waiting to borrow them. We’ve purchased as many copies as our budget allows, but if you’re able to help, we’d be truly grateful.

If you have a pristine copy, you’ve finished reading - whether it’s one you bought yourself or received as a gift - you can donate it at any library in Devon or Torbay. We’ll add it to our collection to help reduce the waiting list.

Thank you so much for your support! 💚

Our ten most popular titles this month are:
1. Last One Out by Jane Harper
2. Yesteryear by Caro Claire Burke
3. A Deadly Episode by Anthony Horowitz
4. The Things We Never Say by Elizabeth Strout
5. The Names by Florence Knapp
6. A Far-flung Life by M.L. Stedman
7. Hope Rises by David Baldacci
8. Enough Said by Alan Bennett
9. Project Hail Mary by Andy Weir
10. When The Cranes Fly South by Lisa Ridzén

I thought i'd do some exploring on BorrowBox this week, as the Gazette has just been added to the selection on offer; and show you the 3 types of items you can download with your library card ( and PIN number):

📰A Paper- the latest edition of the Kingsbridge & Salcombe Gazette

📚An eBook- Albert's Intriguing Salcombe Adventure by James Hwyel (along with help and illustrations from the children at Salcombe C of E Primary School !!)

🎧An eAudiobook- Let Them by Mel Robbins. This is one of the *instant downloads* currently available, so snap up a copy before it goes back in a queue!

Do have a look around the app or sign in via the website - i find the newspapers and magazines more appealing and easier to navigate on my laptop/PC screen 🔗👇
