Week 5: Novelist
I've never read the Uglies series by Scott Westerfield. I am, however, intrigued by the book covers and the premise of surgically transforming one's looks and place in society. (What a foreign concept!)
By using the sort by tool, I could put them in order by volume. How wonderful! As a new high school librarian, who is not used to the collection yet, sometimes when a student asks which one comes next I find myself scouring online to find the answer. (Why they do not reflect it in our catalog is another story.) The author description is something I did not know existed. What a great way to learn about authors and their writing styles.
I love that it is connected to Good Reads, a tool that many of us use to find real reviews by our peers.
Thank you for yet another great tool!
