This author review is contributed by one of our patrons….

let us know if you would like to submit a review!

Minneapolis is the unlikely setting for Davidson’s “Undead” series. She weaves vampires, werewolves, and mermaids into hilarious plots. She has written other books that are also very funny. Davidson is a prolific writer whose sole purpose is to make you laugh. Even her “author’s notes” are a great read. Try one and you’ll be hooked.

July was a busy month! The July 4th Book Sale went well, we sold a lot of inventory to make room for more. The Library Foundation put together a great float for the parade and took 2nd place. The Demmer Library Board presented the plans for the library renovation to the public on July 10th. It’s going to be a wonderful “new” library. Please donate to the building fund. No amount is too small.

The screening event is a collaboration of WPT and the Wisconsin Library Association’s Reel to Real project. Reel to Real seeks to engage the community by providing access to thought provoking screenings and discussion topics.
