Director's Review- Matched by Ally Condie

"Matched" is the first installment of Ally Condie's best selling "Matched" trilogy. While the series, as a whole, has been wildly popular, I just couldn't get into this one. After reading the synopsis, it sounded so promising, as did the first several chapters, but approximately half-way through the story, my interest started to wane. Nothing really seemed to be happening, and the love story between Cassia and Ky, which basically became the entire focus of the story, had no basis or explanation other than "insta-love" to make it believable.
However, despite this, I enjoyed the disturbing post apocalyptic world Condie created. I was both interested and disgusted at different points throughout the book, especially in regards to the storyline of Cassia's grandfather and the society's elder population.

Harry Potter's World: Renaissance Science, Magic, and Medicine

The Seward County Community College Library is proud to present the exhibition Harry Potter’s World: Renaissance Science, Magic, and Medicine.

The six-panel exhibition explores the world of Harry Potter and its roots in Renaissance magic, science, and medicine. Among the sections covered are potions, immortality, fantastic beasts, monsters, magical creatures and herbology.

In 1997, British author J. K. Rowling introduced the world to Harry Potter and a literary phenomenon was born. Millions of readers have followed Harry to the Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry where he discovers his heritage, encounters new plants and animals, and perfects his magical abilities.

Although a fantasy story, the magic in the Harry Potter books is partially based on Renaissance traditions that played an important role in the development of Western science, including alchemy, astrology, and natural philosophy.

The exhibition, which is brought to you by the National Library of Medicine, National Institutes of Health, runs from Monday, November 21 through Friday, January 6 and is open during library hours. It is free and open to the public.
