Â鶹ӰÊÓ

The Â鶹ӰÊÓ Library wants to know-- what did you do this summer?

for a chance to be featured (either by name or anonymously) in a future Â鶹ӰÊÓ Library blog or social media post AND be entered to win some very excellent Â鶹ӰÊÓ Library swag.

Enter by Monday, September 1. Winners will be notified well before the autumnal equinox on September 22.

(For what it's worth, working all summer is a perfectly acceptable answer here. We get it. We worked, too. You can just fill out the form for the swag.)

Ever watched a movie and thought, "The book was better?"

Maybe you’re the type of person who loves to compare every detail between the novel and its film adaptation? Either way, we’ve got you covered!

Check out these incredible books—available in the Â鶹ӰÊÓ Library—that have made their way to the small screen on DVD...which we also have available for you to take home!

The Color Purple

Alice Walker’s Pulitzer-winning novel is a powerful tale of resilience, sisterhood, and survival, set in the early 20th-century American South.

The 1985 Spielberg film (starring Whoopi Goldberg, Oprah Winfrey, and Danny Glover) and the;

2023 musical adaptation, both bring Celie’s journey to life with unforgettable performances.

Gone Girl

Gillian Flynn’s psychological thriller about a seemingly perfect marriage gone horribly wrong keeps readers guessing until the very end.
 

David Fincher’s 2014 film (starring Rosamund Pike and Ben Affleck) is just as twisty, dark, and deliciously unsettling as the novel.
