SUMMARY:December Adventures in Reading Kids Club - The Library of Unruly Treasures by Jeanne Birdsall
DESCRIPTION:Our Adventures in Reading Kids Club is free and open to all AND the book is 10% off book club pricing. Come on out and join your fellow readers each month for a free pizza party and chat about the selected book. \n\n\n\nThis month we’re also hosting our kids’ holiday party! As for the book\, we’ll be chatting about The Library of Unruly Treasures by Jeanne Birdsall \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nFrom Jeanne Birdsall\, the NYT bestselling and National Book Award–winning author of The Penderwicks\, comes a warm\, funny\, and magical new adventure that proves even the most unlikely heroes can make a difference. \n\n\n\nGwen MacKinnon knows her parents are dreadful—so dreadful that being sent away to stay with an uncle she’s never met feels more like a vacation than a punishment. Her new guardian\, Uncle Matthew\, comes with quirks of his own\, including an outspoken dog named Pumpkin who quickly becomes Gwen’s closest ally. \n\n\n\nBut when Gwen wanders into the local library\, she makes a discovery that changes everything. Hidden among the stacks are tiny winged creatures called Lahdukan—seen only by Gwen and the youngest children gathered at storytime. These mischievous\, magical beings are in trouble\, and they believe Gwen is the one destined to help them. \n\n\n\nThe problem? Gwen doesn’t feel like a hero. She’s ordinary\, unwanted\, and far from courageous. But the Lahdukan don’t give up easily\, and with Pumpkin nudging her forward\, Gwen is drawn into a quest to save them—and\, perhaps\, discover her own strength along the way. \n\n\n\nBursting with humor\, heart\, and just the right touch of whimsy\, The Library of Unruly Treasures is a tender story about friendship\, bravery\, and the unexpected ways we find our place in the world. A perfect pick for readers who love libraries\, magical creatures\, and adventures with plenty of laughter along the way.

Soon Zed is chatting with “Matt\,” an A.I. pal who seems to understand him better than any human ever has. Matt is supportive\, funny… maybe too perfect. As their bond deepens\, Zed starts to realize that a digital best friend might be real enough to cause real-world trouble.  \n\n\n\nA funny\, fast-paced\, and eerily timely story about belonging\, jealousy\, and the slippery line between tech and trust.

SUMMARY:August Fab Fantasy Book Club: The Franchise by Thomas Elrod
DESCRIPTION:Come join the discussion – wine and apps are free\, and –as always– our clubs are free and open to all\, PLUS the book club picks are offered at the 10% off book club discount! \n\n\n\nThis month\, we’re chatting about The Franchise by Thomas Elrod\, a wildly imaginative fantasy that combines the epic scale of Game of Thrones with the reality-bending intrigue of “The Truman Show.”  \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nThe world of Malicarn has everything fantasy readers could want—dragons\, magic\, wizards\, warriors\, and kingdoms locked in conflict. But there’s a catch: Malicarn is actually a Hollywood-owned fantasy realm created for a blockbuster film franchise. Most of its inhabitants have no idea their world is fictional. They live\, fight\, and die believing their scripted lives are real. \n\n\n\nWhen a fan-favorite actor begins to suspect the truth\, he sets out to challenge the studio’s control and awaken others to the reality around them. Equal parts epic adventure\, satire\, and philosophical exploration\, this novel questions power\, free will\, and the stories that shape our lives. Both entertaining and thought-provoking.
