Students crowded around tables at Smith Plaza to pick out available free books and learn about free educational resources on Tuesday, Oct. 21, and Wednesday, Oct. 22. The University of New Mexico Open Educational Resources initiative hosted book fairs where onlookers were encouraged to take free books and learn about an initiative that seeks to connect faculty members to low-cost and no-cost textbooks and class material solutions. Samantha “Sammi” Williams, the program coordinator of UNM OER, said that the event was a major success with many people stopping by to take advantage of the available free books.

REVIEW: The Invisible Life of Addie LaRue will stay invisible on my bookshelf

Addie Gerber | October 13

I would fully recommend “The Invisible Life of Addie LaRue” if you like reading historical fantasies. For me, the book had barely any dimensional characters, and a writing style that was too focused on looking pretty rather than being readable. Published in 2020 by V. E Schwab, the story mainly follows a girl named Adeline LaRue from France, born in the year 1691.On her wedding day, she made a deal to extend her life with the God of Shadows, Luc. The deal was made, but it wasn't until the morning that she learned there was a drawback;everyone she meets forgets who she was as soon as they walked away or closed a door.
