For teens in grades 8-12.

Did #BookTok make you read it? Let’s talk about it. We’ll talk about all books, but focus on a particular one each month! This month, we’ll be talking about Scythe, by Neal Shusterman:

Thou shalt kill.

A world with no hunger, no disease, no war, no misery. Humanity has conquered all those things, and has even conquered death. Now scythes are the only ones who can end life—and they are commanded to do so, in order to keep the size of the population under control.

Citra and Rowan are chosen to apprentice to a scythe—a role that neither wants. These teens must master the “art” of taking life, knowing that the consequence of failure could mean losing their own.

You can pick up a copy of the book in the Teen Section up to one month before the meeting. We’ll meet in the Youth Services Program Room for book club! Sign up is required. Please complete the sign up form below. If you have any questions, contact Nicole: nperrault@minlib.net | 781-475-5735
