This #BookFaceFriday is something to write about!

It’s November, which means it’s time for #NaNoWriMo, or National Novel Writing Month! This annual challenge to write 50,000 words of a novel has resulted in hundreds of thousands of new books since 1999, including this week’s #BookFaceFriday, “The Forest of Hands and Teeth” by Carrie Ryan (Random House Children’s Books, 2009). It’s available as both an eBook and audiobook in the Nebraska OverDrive Libraries. Find it and other November-written novels in the #NaNoWriMo collection. Plus new titles, both nonfiction and fiction, are added daily to Nebraska Overdrive Libraries!

““Mary’s observant, careful narration pulls readers into a bleak but gripping story of survival and the endless capacity of humanity to persevere . . .Fresh and riveting.””

―Publishers Weekly
