December may be the coldest, darkest month of the year but it is also the month most associated with illumination - holiday lights, glowing fireplaces, candlelight, the Winter Solstice with its promise of longer days - and, the enlightenment inherent in books! Given the blustery weather, this final “chapter” of the year provides a built-in excuse to stay indoors, catch up on your reading, and reboot your psyche. Check out some of the new titles to hit the Scarsdale Library shelves in recent months. Click on the book jackets for catalog links. Enjoy the journey!
