SUMMARY:Fab Fantasy Club: VE Schwab's Fragile Threads of Power!
DESCRIPTION:YES\, we still have some signed copies available – come grab yours and then join us on book club night for fun discussion and free treats – open to all! \n\n\n\nV. E. Schwab\, #1 New York Times bestselling author of The Invisible Life of Addie LaRue\, opens another door to a new fantasy series set in the dazzling world of Shades of Magic. Prepare for tangled schemes and perilous adventures with friends old and new in The Fragile Threads of Power.  \n\n\n\nOnce\, there were four worlds\, nestled like pages in a book\, each pulsing with fantastical power and connected by a single city: London. Until the magic grew too fast and forced the worlds to seal the doors between them in a desperate gamble to protect their own. The few magicians who could still open the doors grew more rare as time passed and now\, only three Antari are known in recent memory–Kell Maresh of Red London\, Delilah Bard of Grey London\, and Holland Vosijk\, of White London.  \n\n\n\nBut barely a glimpse of them have been seen in the last seven years–and a new Antari named Kosika has appeared in White London\, taking the throne in Holland’s absence. The young queen is willing to feed her city with blood\, including her own–but her growing religious fervor has the potential to drown it instead. And back in Red London\, King Rhy Maresh is threatened by a rising rebellion\, one determined to correct the balance of power by razing the throne entirely.  \n\n\n\nThese two royals from very different empires now face very similar struggles: how to keep their crowns–and their own heads. Amidst this tapestry of old friends and new enemies\, a girl with an unusual magical ability comes into possession of a device that could change the fate of all four worlds. Her name is Tes\, and she’s the only one who can bring them together–or unravel it all.

SUMMARY:Thriller Book Club: Bright Young Women
DESCRIPTION:Our Thrill in the ‘Ville Summerville thriller book club is back with a real spine-tingler this month\, Bright Young Women by Jessica Knoll! \n\n\n\nAs always\, our book clubs are free and open to all. The book is available for 10% off (book club discount) and we’ll provide treats and wine… you bring the conversation! \n\n\n\nTwo women from opposite sides of the country are brought together by violent acts of the same man\, and become allies and sisters in arms as they pursue the justice that would otherwise elude them in one of the most acclaimed\, highly-anticipated thrillers of the year. Masterfully blending elements of psychological suspense and true crime\, Jessica Knoll–author of the bestselling novel Luckiest Girl Alive and the writer behind the Netflix adaption starring Mila Kunis–delivers a new and exhilarating thriller in Bright Young Women.  \n\n\n\nThe book opens on a Saturday night in 1978\, hours before a soon-to-be-infamous murderer descends upon a Florida sorority house with deadly results. The lives of those who survive\, including sorority president and key witness\, Pamela Schumacher\, are forever changed. Across the country\, Tina Cannon is convinced her missing friend was targeted by the man papers refer to as the All-American Sex Killer–and that he’s struck again. Determined to find justice\, the two join forces as their search for answers leads to a final\, shocking confrontation.  \n\n\n\n\nBlisteringly paced\, Bright Young Women is “Jessica Knoll at her best–an unflinching and evocative novel about the tabloid fascination with evil and the dynamic and brilliant women who have the real stories to tell”  \n(Laura Dave\, New York Times bestselling author of The Last Thing He Told Me)\n\n\n\n\n“a compelling\, almost hypnotic read and I loved it with a passion”  \n(Lisa Jewell\, New York Times bestselling author of None of This Is True).

SUMMARY:Bestsellers Book Club: The Invisible Hour by Alice Hoffman - WED This Month!
DESCRIPTION:This month\, because of Tuesday’s tree lighting and festivities in the square\, the Living Large Bookclub has decided to meet on Wednesday\, one day later\, November 29th. \n\n\n\nWe’ll be chatting about the newest hit by Alice Hoffman\, The Invisible Hour. As always\, book clubs are free and open to all\, and the book is eligible for the 10% book club discount. Refreshments will be served\, come join the fun! \n\n\n\nFrom the beloved New York Times bestselling author of The Marriage of Opposites and the Practical Magic series comes an enchanting novel about love\, heartbreak\, self-discovery\, and the enduring magic of books. \n\n\n\nOne brilliant June day when Mia Jacob can no longer see a way to survive\, the power of words saves her. The Scarlet Letter was written almost two hundred years earlier\, but it seems to tell the story of Mia’s mother\, Ivy\, and their life inside the Community–an oppressive cult in western Massachusetts where contact with the outside world is forbidden\, and books are considered evil. But how could this be? How could Nathaniel Hawthorne have so perfectly captured the pain and loss that Mia carries inside her?  \n\n\n\nThrough a journey of heartbreak\, love\, and time\, Mia must abandon the rules she was raised with at the Community. As she does\, she realizes that reading can transport you to other worlds or bring them to you\, and that readers and writers affect one another in mysterious ways. She learns that time is more fluid than she can imagine\, and that love is stronger than any chains that bind you. As a girl Mia fell in love with a book. Now as a young woman she falls in love with a brilliant writer as she makes her way back in time.  \n\n\n\nBut what if Nathaniel Hawthorne never wrote The Scarlet Letter? And what if Mia Jacob never found it on the day she planned to die? Nathaniel Hawthorne wrote: “A single dream is more powerful than a thousand realities.” This is the story of one woman’s dream. For a little while it came true…
