Call the library to check availability and request these new items:

Don't Worry, He Won't Get Far On Foot (R)
John Callahan has a lust for life, a talent for off-color jokes, and a drinking problem. When an all-night bender ends in a catastrophic car accident, the last thing he intends to do is give up drinking. But when he reluctantly enters treatment, Callahan discovers a gift for drawing edgy, irreverent newspaper cartoons that develop an international following and grant him a new lease on life.

Eighth Grade (R)
Thirteen-year-old Kayla endures the tidal wave of contemporary suburban adolescence as she makes her way through the last week of middle school--the end of her thus far disastrous eighth grade year--before she begins high school.




Hotel Artemis (R)
After a daring heist, a wounded bank robber checks in to this secret hospital for criminals while riots rage outside--but he finds himself entangled with an arms dealer, a crime lord, and a mysterious assassin whose mission pits all the guests against each other in a deadly game of survival.


Leave No Trace (PG)
Will and his teenage daughter, Tom, have lived off the grid for years in the forests of Portland, Oregon. When their idyllic life is shattered, both are put into social services. After clashing with their new surroundings, Will and Tom set off on a harrowing journey back to their wild homeland.



Rise Of The Superstorms (NR)
In summer 2017, three monster hurricanes swept in from the Atlantic one after another, shattering storm records and killing hundreds of people. Dive into the devastation wrought by Hurricanes Harvey, Irma, and Maria. How can scientists better predict these storms, and what does the 2017 season tell us about the likelihood of similar storms in the future?

Skyscraper (PG-13)
Former FBI Hostage Rescue Team leader and U.S. war veteran Will Sawyer now assesses security for skyscrapers. He's on assignment in China when he finds the tallest, safest building in the world suddenly ablaze, and he's been framed for it. 




This Is Us (TV-PG)
Everyone has a family. And every family has a story. This Is Us chronicles the Pearson family across the decades: from Jack and Rebecca as young parents in the 1980s to their 37-year-old kids, Kevin, Kate, and Randall searching for love and fulfillment in the present day. The tiniest events in our lives impact who we become, and the connections we share with each other can transcend time, distance, and even death.
