I'm going to keep this up over the weekend...didn't get a lot of people yesterday!
Today's the day to request books that you want to see in your library!
If you haven't signed up for the blogfest, not a problem! See the grand list here, add yourself, and check out what other books we are putting in our libraries!
I recently read two excellent books that are not in my library. The first is Cross My Heart by Julie Wright. This is a fun, lighthearted romance with not just a love triangle, but a love quadrangle! It was funny and emotional, making me laugh and making me cry. LOVED it. ASIN: B0046CFDAK
The second is Wrong Number by Rachelle Christensen.
This thriller-type novel captured my attention on page 1, and by page 5, I was hooked. Like, can't-stop-thinking-about-it hooked. The stakes are high, characters we care about are dying or in danger, and it's easy to read. ISBN-10: 1599553643
Now that you've selected a book or two that your library doesn't have, go to your library's webpage and request it. Most have an online form you can fill out. If your library doesn't (like mine), you can call and request it. Or walk in and request it, as I am going to do. It is, of course, helpful if you provide the ISBN, but not required (most of the time).
These books I read that I've chosen are simply excellent, and it would be a shame if more people don't have access to them! Do the books you like a simple favor, and ask your library to stock them!

Great idea!
Last week, I asked my library to order The Lipstick Laws by Amy Holder (which I'm reading now) and Demonglass by Rachel Hawkins (which I just read) :)
Those sound like good books too. My library had the form online so it was very easy to do.
This is such a good way to share good books. I'm probably going to try this more often.
Looks like some good book recommendations :) Thanks for sharing!
