Runescape at GameFest


Games, Gamers and Gaming


If you love an intriguing story that will hook you from the beginning (just like your favorite Runescape or other game), here are 2 titles that you could escape with:



HEAD GAMES - Fredericks, Mariah

2 teenagers connect online in a role-playing game, one discovering that her online rival is actually her neighbor.






RANVAN: A WORTHY OPPONENT - Wieler, Diana

Rhan Van is a grandson and high-school student by day, but his greatest challenges lie in the rivalry of an online game, and lead him into to a battle of wit and skills set in both the real world and the virtual game world.

Long time, No post

It's your teen librarian reporting to the blog after a long pause in posts. It's been a bit busy, but I promise to write more often about what's going on! Please feel free to give me a hard time in the comments.

So, I'm happy that Starbucks is here in little ole New Castle, Indiana...what about you? I think I've spent a little too much money there already. I'm all about the Green Tea Lattes or anything tea for that matter. I still brew my own coffee at my house though. Starbucks is for a treat.

Don't forget there's a Game Fest on Sunday from 1-5 pm. Feel free to bring extra controllers/paddles and games! And I'll be happy to bring out the DDR pads if someone wants to use them. Let me know. We've been signing up for 1/2 hour open play and it's gone pretty well, unless of course Halo 2 gets played, then we try to allow for a little extra time with regard to fairness for all (and getting the most kills in !!!). Nope, not me, though. I'm just a observer in this game...
