NoveList



Novelist ,
That's all I am going to say. Check it out.

O.K., maybe a bit more, if you have questions, call us! 781-2351. This is a great tool for searching out books you'd like to read and didn't even know about.

You may search by author, title, series; even by describing a plot. This is a great tool if you can't remember a title or an author, but you remember the general plot of a book.

Maybe you have a favorite author, say, Robert Parker. You've read everything in the Jesse Stone series. If only there were more.... How about looking for a "read a like"? Another author who writes like Parker in this series; fast-paced, suspenseful with a tough guy main character? If you like the darker side of mystery and suspense, check out Lawrence Block, Raymond Chandler or Harlan Coben.

Novelist is just one of many databases available through Maine libraries. And just one of a few tools to help you find that next great read. Keep reading here as we add more resources.
