Teen Graphic Novel Book Club

August 29, 2023 @ 3:30 pm - 4:00 pm

Free

For teens in grades 6 and up

This month, we’re reading Buckhead, v1 by Shobo:

Toba and his mother, a renowned scientist, have just immigrated to the US from Nigeria. But instead of living in the Big City like Toba always dreamed, they’ve moved to a sleepy little town in the Pacific Northwest called Buckhead. Hidden away in the basement of the school, Toba and his newfound friends discover a strange video game–a perfect replica of Ancient Benin and its people.

Soon, Toba is on the run from men in black after witnessing strange experiments, disappearances, and a mind-controlling tattoo that everyone in town seems to have. As Toba and his friends chase down a vast conspiracy with connections to another world in the fight to save their parents, they soon uncover the ancient terror that’s behind it all. Will they be able to work together and save their parents (and Buckhead) before it’s too late?

The book is available for pickup in the Teen Room.

Graphic Novel Book Club will meet in the Youth Services Program Room.
