UN-BOOK CLUB
Monthly meetings - First Thursday of the month
4 - 5 PM
Calling ALL teen readers! Come and join the brand new teen UnBook Club at the library! What’s an unbook club you may be asking? It’s a book club where there is no required reading; read whatever you want, discuss books you love with other readers, and get recommendations for future reads. No pressure, no deadlines, just a place to talk about books with other teens!
Next meeting: September 5th
