Kanopy Recommendation
Dark City: Sci-Fi Thriller
1998: 1 hr, 40 min - Rated: R
Uses 4 tickets: 48 hour access
A population trapped in an endless nightmare reality, manipulated by a shadowy group known only as ‘The Strangers’—This is the scenario of an astounding Science Fiction Neo-Noir, ‘Dark City’, a film that asks some intriguing questions: Are we living in a false reality, totally manipulated by illusion? Are we slaves to our physical perceptions? Is a person no more than the sum of their memories, or are we more than that? Highly recommended.
Kanopy is free with your library card, providing 21 tickets each month to watch streaming movies, documentaries, and TV shows.
Libby Recommendation
On Again, Awkward Again: YA Romance
On Again, Awkward Again
by: Erin Entrada Kelly and Kwame Mbalia
When Pacy and Cecil spot each other during the first week of freshman year, it's love at first sight, or rather love at first fleeting, injury-riddled glance. They are drawn to each other as seven seconds of eye contact turns into days of yearning and stress as they follow misguided advice from friends, dysfunctional families, and strangers on the internet. The universe brings Pacy and Cecil together when they both end up on the WADS committee to plan the freshman dance. As they spend more time together, they realize that the other person might be just what they need... if they can figure out how to be themselves and embrace the mishaps, mistakes, and hilariously awkward interactions that make up their imperfectly perfect love story.
Read On Again, Awkward Again as an ebook or as an eaudiobook with no wait time. Discover all the great books in Overdrive and Libby.
