Great YA Summer Reads!

YA Tales to Keep You on Your Toes!

Murder mysteries, mocumentaries, and mourning make up this intriguing event!

Join us to discover: 

• Better Left Buried by MARY ROACH. Lucy Preston just wants to go on vacation, but her mom is a private detective, meaning her beach vacays tend to go off the rails a bit. When a body is discovered, Audrey tries to get to the bottom of her mom's mysterious connection to the town, and to the even more mysterious girl that seems to have answers. Unfortunately, some things are better left buried...
  
  
• The Ping-Pong Queen of Chinatown by ANDREW YANG. After cynically starting a film club to bulk up his college resume, Felix Ma meets Cassie Chow and invites her to star in his short film. But what started out as a mockumentary soon morphs into a serious drama about the emotional scars that parents leave on their kids, and Cassie balks at opening her wounds for the camera. Is academic achievement worth losing his closest friend?
  
  
• Right Here, Right Now by SHANNON DUNLAP. There are infinite universes in which Elise never dies. Where her best friend, Anna, and her cousin, Liam, never have to mourn her. But Liam and Anna do not get to choose the universe in which they live, and their paths collide as they wrestle with what it takes to save someone else and how to face love and loss on a quantum scale.
