What’s new in Leisure Reading

By Adison Godfrey, Bednar Intern, Library Learning Services

To coincide with the November release of the highly anticipated film adaption of Suzanne Collins’s “Mockingjay,” Leisure Reading’s theme for the month of November is dystopia! Dystopian themes have been increasing in popularity thanks to titles such as “The Hunger Games,” “Divergent,” “The Giver” and “The Maze Runner.” A dystopian book display will be featured at the front of the Leisure Reading Room so that readers who have enjoyed these novels can discover similar ones. Leisure Reading is also taking advantage of this upcoming release to encourage students and faculty to read the book before watching the movie—if you haven’t yet, stop by the Leisure Reading Room to pick up a copy of Mockingjay today!

To read a summary and review of Mockingjay, as well as other novels you might enjoy, check out the Leisure Reading blog at www.goodreadspsu.blogspot.com.
