We are nearing our first meeting for my YA book club where we will be discussing our first novel – The Boundless by Kenneth Oppel.
However, in the interest of staying ahead of the game, I am announcing our February book now so everyone has time to pick up a copy before the beginning of the month.
Our book pick for February 2019 is:
Salt to the Sea by Ruta Sepetys
Winter 1945. WWII. Four refugees. Four stories.
Each one born of a different homeland; each one hunted, and haunted, by tragedy, lies, war. As thousands desperately flock to the coast in the midst of a Soviet advance, four paths converge, vying for passage aboard the Wilhelm Gustloff, a ship that promises safety and freedom. But not all promises can be kept . . .
Get your copy and read along with us.
Interested in information about joining the book club? You must be from Winnipeg or surrounding area, and a writer of middle grade or young adult fiction.
