THE BOOKWYRMS Book Club

Join us for the August meeting of The Bookwyrms Book Club!
If you hadn't noticed, we've got an amazing book section, and we love to talk books, so a book club feels like the perfect next move! We'll be meeting every month to discuss interesting books, and there will be coffee and snacks. We've really been blown away by the interest and attendance in our first couple of meetings, and want to clarify some things about how we're doing things.
The goal of The Bookwyrms is to introduce titles we're excited about to new readers, so purchase of the book club selection ticket combo is a requirement to join the discussion. You can buy the special book + ticket combo online and in-store, just mention it at check out!
This month's selection is STARTER VILLAIN by John Scalzi.
Now a New York Times bestseller!
Featuring an exclusive short story from the perspective of your favorite feline!
Inheriting your uncle's supervillain business is more complicated than you might think. Particularly when you discover who's running the place.
Charlie's life is going nowhere fast. A divorced substitute teacher living with his cat in a house his siblings want to sell, all he wants is to open a pub downtown, if only the bank will approve his loan.
Then his long-lost uncle Jake dies and leaves his supervillain business (complete with island volcano lair) to Charlie.
But becoming a supervillain isn't all giant laser death rays and lava pits. Jake had enemies, and now they're coming after Charlie. His uncle might have been a stand-up, old-fashioned kind of villain, but these are the real thing: rich, soulless predators backed by multinational corporations and venture capital.
It's up to Charlie to win the war his uncle started against a league of supervillains. But with unionized dolphins, hyper-intelligent talking spy cats, and a terrifying henchperson at his side, going bad is starting to look pretty good.
In a dog-eat-dog world...be a cat.
Get the book + ticket combo and join us for fun, lively discussion and snacks!
