Event Details
Join us at the Romeoville Branch Library on the second Tuesday evening of most months for a spirited book discussion and light refreshments including a choice of beer, wine or a non alcoholic beverage.
This month's title is The House in the Cerulean Sea by T.J. Klune. Linus Baker leads a quiet, solitary life as a Case Worker at the Department in Charge Of Magical Youth. He spends his days overseeing the well-being of children in government-sanctioned orphanages, but when Linus is given a highly classified case by Extremely Upper Management, he nearly faints with fear. The children at the orphanage are surely evil, dangerous, terrifying, and... charmingly funny? Almost as much as their caretaker - the kind-hearted and enigmatic Arthur Parnassus, who will do anything to keep his wards safe. "An enchanting story, masterfully told, The House in the Cerulean Sea is about the profound experience of discovering an unlikely family in an unexpected place-and realizing that family is yours." ~ blogger Fives @ Down the Rabbit Hole
This book will be available one month prior to the discussion and can be picked up at the Romeoville Branch Library's Adult Services Desk and will be due back one week after the book club date. We hope to see you there!
