New books arrive in the young adult section every week. Check out what arrived in December and January.
Paper Towns was written by John Green the author of the award winning book, Looking for Alaska. Paper Towns begins one month before Quentin "Q" Jacobsen's graduation from Central Flordia high school where he basks in the predictable boringness of his life until the beautiful and exciting Margo Roth Spiegelman, Q's neighbor and classmate, takes him on a midnight adventure and then mysteriously disappears.
The Time Quake is the third part of the Gideon trilogy by Linda Buckley-Archer. In this book, the sinister Lord Luxon makes himself at home in twenty-first century Manhattan, Peter and Kate, aided by Gideon, pursue The Tar Man through the streets of eighteenth-century London, when history is at its tipping point.

Paper Towns looks really interesting, if only for its name.
As soon as I slough the library debts off my card, I'm taking it. :D

:/

You'll have to give me a friendly reminder.

Is there anywhere on the website to find new YA or kids audiobooks? They don't seem to be in the new teen books or the new adult audiobooks lists.

No, actually, they only list adult materials. Sorry! I have asked, of course.
