The TeenZone is a place just for teens! From ages 13 to 19, you can find great books just right for you! Here is a list of some of the great things the TeenZone has in its collection:

  • Fiction (science fiction, fantasy, horror, dystopian, short stories, historical and more!)
  • Nonfiction (health, cookbooks, religions, true crime, poetry, history and more!)
  • Audiobooks
  • Series Fiction
  • Graphic Novels, Manga and Comics
  • Board games to play in the Teen Zone

Check out the special displays highlighting new books or exceptional books! BTW, the Youth Services Lead gets a lot of ideas of what to buy from the teens themselves! If you have a great idea for something the Teen Zone should own, contact Melena Tanner: mtanner@ci.benicia.ca.us
