Boundless Book Society (Grades 7-12)

Boundless Book Society is a pressure-free, monthly book club for teens in grades 7–12! The best part is, there’s no pressure to read the book before the meeting! We know that teens already have homework, deadlines and other pressures every day. So if you read that month’s book, great! Come chat about it. If you didn’t get to the book before the meeting, come hang out with us anyway. 

After you register, drop by the teen library any time during open hours to pick up your book in preparation for the meeting. We’ll meet in person at the library and simultaneously on Zoom to chat about books, so please join us in the venue that is most comfortable for you.
