Tween Book Group Reads Shadow and Bone for July 13th
Page Turners, our book group for tweens in grades 6-8, is reading Shadow and Bone by Leigh Bardugo for their get-together on Thursday, July 13th @ 2:30PM. The group begins with an after school snack, followed by a discussion of the book, and a short activity.
Copies of the book are available in the upper-level Teen area and the lower- level Young Readers’ Room.
About the Book
Soldier. Summoner. Saint. Orphaned and
expendable, Alina Starkov is a soldier who knows she may not survive her
first trek across the Shadow Fold—a swath of unnatural darkness
crawling with monsters. But when her regiment is attacked, Alina
unleashes dormant magic not even she knew she possessed.
Now Alina will enter a lavish world of royalty and intrigue as she trains with the Grisha, her country’s magical military elite—and falls under the spell of their notorious leader, the Darkling. He believes Alina can summon a force capable of destroying the Shadow Fold and reuniting their war-ravaged country, but only if she can master her untamed gift.
As the threat to the kingdom mounts and Alina unlocks the secrets of her past, she will make a dangerous discovery that could threaten all she loves and the very future of a nation.
Welcome to Ravka . . . a world of science and superstition where nothing is what it seems.
