Event Details

Are you a mega fan of YA books? Have you always wanted to try young adult literature but needed help figuring out where to start? Well, this is the book club for you! Join us monthly as we read some of the most beloved Young Adult books, shamelessly swoon over our favorite characters, and share in bookworm camaraderie. This is a book club for all ages.


Stop by the Richmond location circulation desk to grab a copy of each month's book pick.

September's book pick is Dry by Neal Shusterman.

Book Description:

When the California drought escalates to catastrophic proportions, one teen is forced to make life and death decisions for her family in this harrowing story of survival from New York Times bestselling author Neal Shusterman and Jarrod Shusterman.

The drought—or the Tap-Out, as everyone calls it—has been going on for a while now. Everyone’s lives have become an endless list of don’ts: don’t water the lawn, don’t fill up your pool, don’t take long showers.

Until the taps run dry.

Suddenly, Alyssa’s quiet suburban street spirals into a warzone of desperation; neighbors and families turned against each other on the hunt for water. And when her parents don’t return and her life—and the life of her brother—is threatened, Alyssa has to make impossible choices if she’s going to survive.
