Do you love reading YA books? Do you wish you had others to discuss these books with? Then this is the book club for you! Ages 13+

It is 1937, and Laura Ann Langston lives in an America divided - between those who work the mystical arts and those who do not. Ever since the Great Rust, a catastrophic event that blighted the arcane force called the Dynamism and threw America into disarray, the country has been rebuilding for a better future. And everyone knows the future is industry and technology - otherwise known as Mechomancy - not the traditional mystical arts. Laura disagrees.
 

Copies will be available for book club members to pick up at the Duncan Circulation desk in March before the book club meeting on April 30th.
