Two new book clubs have recently come to your local Thibodaux Branch Library! That’s right, two! While these book clubs are still finding their footing, they both focus on Young Adult (YA) only books. This is a popular genre and we want to create a place for those who love it!
One of the clubs is meant for teens who want a place all their own to talk about the books they love. Currently, the teens YA book club is reading through the Harry Potter series. We’ve already read through the first book, Harry Potter and the Sorcerer’s Stone. At our next meeting on December 8th at 3:30 P.M. we will be discussing second book in the series, Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets. Now, I personally love these books and love talking about them! If you do too (or even if you’ve never read them) feel free to drop in on one of the meetings. We’d love to hear from you! The teen’s YA book club is for ages 13-17 and is held every other month so as to give the members enough time to read the books while school is in session.
The second of these clubs, also focusing on the YA book genre, is for those 18 years and up. For some, the YA books are more your speed or style. And that’s just fine! We’d love to have you join our club. For our next meeting on January 9th at 5 P.M., we will be discussing the book The Beast is an Animal by Paternelle Van Arsdale. And recommendations are more than welcome! If there’s a book or series you love, we’d be happy to consider it for the club! These meetings will also be held every other month.
If you love YA books, you’re just looking for a library group in which to participate, or if you just like free food (which we happily provide!), come join in on the fun! For meeting dates, times, and books, call your local Thibodaux Branch, check our calendar, or check out our TV flyers. If you know you would like to attend, let us know. We can even order the books for you! We don’t want to miss an opportunity to discuss your favorite book with you!
