Click on a title to read a book review. We've tried to include as many well-respected sources as well as some sites which may interest you. The opinions expresses by these sources do not reflect the opinions of Friends of San Pedro Library or LAPL. For authors, go to the LAPL database Biography Resource Center (Gale). There will be a new list of books at the beginning of each month. It takes a few weeks for the library to process the books before they are placed on the Friends of San Pedro Library Book Shelf next to the circulation desk. Enjoy!
