BYOB Book Club

This is not your grandma's book club!

Teens get told what to read and when to read it for school, but what do you read when you read for pleasure?  BYOB is a welcoming and inclusive community for readers aged 12 to 18.  Our club is designed to celebrate the joy of reading while fostering meaningful connections and stimulating conversations.  Bring what you're into - fantasy, science fiction, romance, mystery, contemporary, or any other genre!  This is the place for you to share your latest literary discoveries and connect with fellow readers who share your interests.  Whether you're an avid reader or just starting to explore the world of literature, BYOB welcomes you with open arms. 

Bring whatever you are currently reading!

There are no restrictions on genre, author, or publication date.  There will be no "book reports," just engaging discussions about characters, themes, writing styles, the overall impact of the books, and why we love them. 

Bonus for October - Bring a recommendation for your favorite seasonal story - from barely scary to spine-tingling!
