We have recently received an assortment of books from the Auckland Writers Festival. These are not the usual “favourites” of our regular readers, but an exciting array of NZ authors. They include novels, essays, poetry, history, memoirs and biographies.
We hope you all had a relaxing time over the Easter holidays. We have a great selection of books from the Auckland Library and hope you’ll come and choose some. Our shelves are full of a variety of books for everybody, all your favourite authors, fiction and non-fiction.
We have plenty of books for young children as well in an area where they can sit and enjoy looking at them. With Autumn here and the cooler days, we have also put out a selection of jigsaws for you.
Looking forward to seeing you all.

From the beginning of August, we will be extending the time you borrow library books from two weeks to four weeks, the same as other libraries, so you won’t have to hurry to finish your books any more.
We have received some great new books for you to read these cold winter evenings.
Great news! We have now got the final book in Lucinda Riley’s Seven Sisters series – ‘The Missing Sister’ which we have all been waiting for. I for one can’t wait to read it.
We have also got the Ockham Book Awards winner Airini Beau-trais’ book ‘Bug Week’. They are all short stories, which is unusual.
Here’s a selection of some more great titles.
Lynda La Plante Judas Horse
Stuart Macbride The Coffin Maker’s Garden
Patricia Grace From the Centre a Writer’s Life – Biography
Come and have a look around and see our great selection of books that we have acquired over the years.

We have now received some new books for the library. Here is a selection:
Ben Sanders The Devils You Know
Janet Skeslien Charles The Paris Library
With the winter weather on the way, it’s a good idea to get a few books from
us so you can always have a good read and forget the cold outside.
We have also received a new variety of books from the Auckland Library which
are also available to borrow.
