10 | Four Seasons Hemet Herald | August 2018 | We welcome you to the Four Seasons community library. Our residents keep us up to date with new and older fiction hardbound books. Our non-fiction section is filled with biographies and a broad range of interesting topics. Check out the travel section on the bottom shelves. Many of you have added to our newer topic! We thank you. We are also trying our best to have a "Classic" section like we use to. Anyone have some older "classics" to donate? We would appreciate them. At this time we are scheduled to have guest speakers in September, Jim Hitt, Nov. 15, Nancy Hawkins, Vernita Black Jan. 17, 2019 and Lynne Spreen March 14, 2019. Mary Bowe will be scheduled at a later date. Nancy Hawkins, though not an author, will be speaking about her friendship with Carolyn Keene, the original author of the Nancy Drew books. Who of us doesn't remember the Nancy Drew mysteries? Come and enjoy our talented Four Seasons authors! A Four Seasons resident told me recently that the library was her favorite part of the Lodge. Though, it's true, she is also a personal friend. Many residents thank the committee when they see us working to keep it in order. We love our "job" and all of us are avid readers. We appreciate you! We certainly have very current books in all areas donated by residents of Four Seasons. Our hardbound books are displayed from 2008-2018. Those 10 years keep our shelves pretty full. Books before the year 2008 will be donated to the Hemet library. Please check the copyright date on donated books and help us keep current. Visit the downtown library with older books and enjoy all the services they offer. Hemet is truly fortunate to have such an up to date beautiful library. Our magazine rack holds three months of donated material. As of this writing please bring, June, July and August. After reading them please be sure to return them for others to read. We currently accept paperback books from 2014-2018. At times we can hardly fit another book in and the next day it is so empty looking. Someone is donating lots of oversized paperbacks dated 2017! Thank you so much. Make sure you check out the far right side of the paperback cabinet. The library committee is comprised of residents who enjoy keeping our 55+ library in order. We ask that you please let us do our job. Don't put your books away, let us do our job. PLEASE do not remove our pillows to the Game Room. It took forever for me to find our new brown pillow. Bring one from home. Thank you. Blair thoughts for today. "I couldn't go to college, so I went to the library three days a week for 10 years." ~ Ray Bradbury. Committee member Anita Decker read, The Jealous Kind by James Lee Burke: Didn't think there was enough angst in being a teenager – add the mob, sociopaths, misfits, the racists and a love triangle and you've got a head on collision just waiting to happen. It's the 1950s in Houston Texas, and the haves and have nots, as well as the myriads of culture and religious personifications clash with a viciousness. It is against this backdrop that Aaron Broussard finds himself entangled with the police, at odds with his best bud Saber, misunderstood by the mob, and the target of a hit man. His saving grace and role model is his father, a decorated solider entrenched in the Great War of 1918, who gives him the fortitude to speak out and stand up for himself. Burke's dialogue and vivid descriptions will leave you breathless and exhausted – a page turner you will not want to put down. Library Committee
