Join Yani on October 12 at 6 pm for a special standalone book club to discuss the Fantasy sensation FOURTH WING by Rebecca Yarros! This book has received so much buzz and excitement from readers we decided we just HAD to get local fans together and talk about it!

"A fantasy like you've never read before." --Jennifer L. Armentrout, #1 New York Times bestselling author

"Smart-ass. Bad-ass. Kick-ass. One helluva ride!" --Tracy Wolff, #1 New York Times bestselling author

Enter the brutal and elite world of a war college for dragon riders from New York Times bestselling author Rebecca Yarros. As war grows more deadly, Violet Sorrengail joins the elite Navarre: the dragon riders. But she'll need to keep her wits because once you enter the Basgiath War College, there are only two ways out: graduate or die.
