Arc Book Club (for teens)!

Advance Readers Copies Book Club (ARC) is not like any book club you’ve been to before. ARC gives you access to the hottest young adult titles before they’re published! Members munch on snacks while choosing from a variety of pre-published novels to take home, read and review!

Then, once each month, we come together to talk about what you read, eat MORE snacks and, of course, grab another pre-published title!

Want to join us this month, but don’t have an ARC book?  Come on in and grab one.  We currently have advanced copies through June!

FCF aka Big Kid Storytime – Artemis Fowl by Eoin Colfer

Do you believe in fairies, goblins, dwarfs and trolls? Artemis Fowl does. He’s thirteen and the greatest criminal genius to come along in centuries. He can outsmart the Russian Mafia, American Business men and the Lower Earth Police. Yup! That’s what I said Lower Earth Police!
