Looking for "Gently Used Books" for High School Independent Reading Libraries

A message from our English Department Chair at CHS

Looking to get rid of old books?

Many teachers have independent reading libraries for classes. 
We like to keep the reading libraries fresh and up to date with multiple copies of high interest texts and would love to have any gently used books you are looking to donate or get out of the house.  We will take any titles that might be popular with young adults.  Some titles/genres on the wish list based on student interest and requests are:

All Souls
The Martian
Season of Life
Divergent
Brown Girl Dreaming
Tuesdays with Morrie (or any other Mitch Albom)
Aristotle and Dante Discover the Secrets of the Universe
Unbroken (YA or adult version)

Jodi Picoult (any titles)
Nicholas Sparks (any titles)
Malcolm Gladwell (any titles)
Sports books of any type
Young Adult Novels (of any type)
Military/War books
Sci-Fi and Fantasy

We would be grateful for any donations.  I am happy to pick up books at your convenience or you can drop them off to me at CHS in my office (C400). I can be reached at ashleyr@cantonma.org or 781-821-5050 ext. 2301 to arrange pick up/drop off.   Thank you in advance for any help you can give.
