Bobrowniki Małe Branch recommends

Long winter evenings make us more inclined to immerse ourselves in reading. We therefore invite you to visit our branches, where everyone will find something for themselves. Here are a few suggestions from the branch in Bobrowniki Małe.

Caroline Green – „ Tunel strachu” (Dark ride)

A novel for teenagers, written by an experienced journalist who describes herself as a voracious reader. The author introduces Bel, a teenage girl who moves with her mother from London to a small town, where her mother has inherited a house from an aunt. The girl cannot come to terms with this change—because of the new school and, above all, because they are no longer a complete family. It is a story full of tension—mysterious, dramatic, and real—and although the ending may seem predictable, it still surprises. Be sure to read it!

Paullina Simons – „Droga do raju” (Road to Paradise)

A moving story by the author of the acclaimed novel The Bronze Horseman, it tells of female friendship, love, and loyalty. An extraordinary journey in a bright yellow Mustang, embarked on by three women—each struggling with her own past—will change their lives forever. The book also vividly presents the nature and culture of America, as the women travel across several states, covering tens of thousands of kilometers. I encourage you to read it and judge for yourselves whether it was worth it!

Becca Fitzpatrick – „Szeptem” (Hush hush)
A book by the author of paranormal romances that begins her bestselling Hush, Hush series—a saga loved by teenagers around the world. It is a poignant, moving, and deeply intimate story—one could say a confession of a woman who has only one day left to live.                   …There are things in our life that we can talk only in whisper …

The entire 4-volume series can be borrowed from the library. The book recommended by female readers.

Jerzy Woźniak – „12 miesięcy w ogrodzie”

A practical guide for gardeners and allotment holders. The book is organized by months, and within each month into specific thematic sections, making it easy to learn about the tasks to be carried out during that period and the methods for completing them. Taking care of your own piece of land brings a lot of enjoyment, but it is also a demanding activity. When cultivating many plant species, it’s easy to forget certain tasks or the right time to carry them out. Reach for this guide and stay up to date all year round!

Józef Waczków – „Dobre obyczaje”

A little book with beautiful, colorful illustrations that will take our youngest readers on an extraordinary, adventure-filled journey to the Land of Good Manners. Dear children, by reading it, you will learn how to behave at home, as a guest, at school, and on the street. You will discover why it is always important to keep things clean and tidy, and why being polite and knowing words like ‘sorry’ and ‘thank you’ is essential—because good manners are very, very important in everyone’s life. Highly recommended!

Jack Ketchum – „Rudy” (Red)

Another remarkable book by American master of horror Jack Ketchum. A beautiful and wise, yet deeply moving story revealing the drama of a man who has lost everything he loved. This time, however, the author allows a small light of hope to shine at the end of a shadowed tunnel. The Polish edition of the novel Rudy is enhanced with the short novel The Right to Live, making this book a must-read for all fans of Jack Ketchum’s unsettling prose.
