Walter Dean Myers

This book club, better known as ARRG!, is for ages 13 and up. The cool thing about this book club is that instead of reading books that are already published, you get to read Advanced Reader Copies (known in the publishing business as ARCs) of books that have yet to be published. Then, you tell us what ... (more)you think! We'll also read one published book each month. At this time, the book club is full. Call the store to find out about getting on the waiting list.
