Event Details

DiversiTeen Book Club meets once a month at the library to talk about great YA books. Teens ages 12-18 are welcome to join and can choose to participate in-person or via Microsoft Teams. Each month, we discuss a different book, with a free copy of the book provided by the library in advance while supplies last.  
New members should register if they would like to attend via Microsoft Teams and/or to receive a free copy of the book while supplies last. Existing or returning book club members do not need to register and walk-in attendees are also welcome at meetings. You must be 12-18 years to attend this program.

Synopsis:

What if you could bring your best friend back to life- but only for a short time? Jamal's best friend, Q, does not know he's about to die...again. He doesn't know that Jamal tried to save him. And that the reason they haven't been friends for two years is because Jamal blames Q for the accident that killed his parents.
But what if Jamal could have a second chance? A new technology allows Q to be reanimated for a few weeks before he dies...permanently. And Q's mom is not about to let anyone ruin this miracle by telling Q about his impending death. So how can Jamal fix everything if he can't tell Q the truth?
