Celebrate St. Patrick's Day and Irish-American Heritage Month by reading fiction with the subject Irish or Irish-American, biographies, non-fiction about travel and places, or watch videos, everything from music, dance, Irish authors, even sports! The video, More Than a Game, follows Akron's St. Vincent-St. Mary Fighting Irish high school basketball team (featuring five future NBA players, including superstar LeBron James) as they win their way to national acclaim. Check Ancestry.com Library Edition (which can be accessed from any CMRLS Library) to see if you can claim Irish ancestors. Ask Library staff if help is needed. It is reported that as much as 11% of Americans have Irish ancestors and the Irish-American population is seven times larger than Ireland! (Washington Post; 3/17/2013)

The Wingmanby Natasha Anders"Introverted Daisy McGregor is used to being a wallflower, but what she lacks in style, she makes up for with an acerbic wit, a passion for life, and a deep devotion to her family. So she'll suffer through her sister Dahlia's bachelorette party and accept the cloud of pity for going stag to the wedding. Out at the pub, sexy bad boy Mason Carlisle is a reluctant wingman tasked with entertaining Daisy while his brother flirts with her oldest sister, Daffodil. When the plan fails and Mason's true intent is revealed, he feels intense guilt--and a sensual spark of desire for the unlikeliest of women. Daisy decides to use this unfortunate encounter to her advantage: to make it up to her, Mason will be another kind of wingman, playing the role of her boyfriend and wedding date. Will their ruse unravel completely--or will Mason and Daisy's undeniable attraction ignite a scorching love affair that knows no rules?"
