There are several big pop culture moments coming up that would be great for teen programming tie ins. Below are just a few with their release dates.
Five Nights at Freddy’s movie releases October 27, 2023
This video game has stayed popular and the Young Adult books we have at the library are always going out. I plan on doing an in person escape room in October since the movie releases October 27, 2023. Escape Rooms continue to be a big draw for us and I enjoy making them.
Ballad of Songbirds and Snakes releases November 17, 2023
It is prime Hunger Game season again. The Hunger Games is huge on Tiktok and since the trailer released for the new film we are having trouble keeping the book in stock at the library.
