We Recommend Wednesday: meet our 1st period library aide, Darcie. Darcie loves to read romance and murder mystery. Her favorite authors are Kasie West and April Henry. She recommends Maybe This Time by Kasie West although she says it is hard to pick a favorite. Love Luck and the List is another great book by the same author. If you like sweet romantic stories, try this book!
