Chester County Library recently issued the following announcement.
Curious to see what the current book club read is?
February's book for the Read 4 Life Chester Main Teen Book Club is "Wink" by Rob Harrell. The Chester Main Teen Book Club is for 6th to 9th graders interested in joining a group of their peers in reading and discussing a book monthly. This book club meets on the 3rd Thursday of each month.
Summary:
A hilarious and heartwrenching story about surviving middle school--and an unthinkable diagnosis--while embracing life's weirdness.
Ross Maloy just wants to be a normal seventh grader. He doesn't want to lose his hair, or wear a weird hat, or deal with the disappearing friends who don't know what to say to the cancer kid. But with his recent diagnosis of a rare eye cancer, blending in is off the table.
Based on Rob Harrell's real life experience, and packed with comic panels and spot art, this incredibly personal and poignant novel is an unforgettable, heartbreaking, hilarious, and uplifting story of survival and finding the music, magic, and laughter in life's weirdness.
If you are interested in joining the Chester Main Teen Book Club, please call 803-377-8145 for more information.
Next Meeting: February 17, 2022 at 4:30 p.m.
