Graphic Novel Club: Keeper of the Lost Cities

Ages 8-13

Registration Required

Graphic Novel Club is a space for graphic novel lovers to come together and talk about the books they love (or hate!). Each month, we will all read the same book and meet at the library to talk about it. We'll have discussion questions to keep the conversation going, activities related to the book, and a selection of read-alikes (books recommended for fans of the book we're discussing) available to borrow.

This month, we're reading and discussing Keeper of the Lost Cities: Volume 1, parts 1 and 2

Twelve-year-old Sophie Foster has never quite fit into her life. She’s skipped multiple grades and doesn’t really connect with the older kids at school, but she’s not comfortable with her family, either. The reason? Sophie’s a Telepath, someone who can read minds. No one knows her secret—at least, that’s what she thinks…

But the day Sophie meets Fitz, a mysterious (and adorable) boy, she learns she’s not alone. He’s a Telepath too, and it turns out the reason she has never felt at home is that, well…she isn’t. Fitz opens Sophie’s eyes to a shocking truth, and she is forced to leave behind her family for a new life in a place that is vastly different from what she has ever known.

We will have copies available to borrow in the Children's Room. If you read the book, but decide you don't like it, come to the meeting anyway! We welcome honesty; dissenting opinions make for the most interesting conversations!

Our Children's Librarian will be facilitating and supervising this discussion.
