February Teen Book Club/Going Bovine

It's not too late to sign up for February's Teen Book Discussion Club. This month we've chosen Going Bovine by best-selling author Libba Bray.

All 16-year-old Cameron wants is to get through high school—and life in general—with a minimum of effort. It’s not a lot to ask. But that’s before he’s given some bad news: he’s sick and he’s going to die. Which totally stinks. Hope arrives in the winged form of Dulcie, a loopy punk angel/possible hallucination with a bad sugar habit. She tells Cam there is a cure—if he’s willing to go in search of it. With the help of a death-obsessed, video-gaming dwarf and a yard gnome, Cam sets off on the mother of all road trips through a twisted America into the heart of what matters most.

Going Bovine was the 2010 winner of the Michael L. Printz Award for Distinguished Young Adult Literature.


Come enjoy a pizza party and a chance to discuss what you did (or didn't) like about the book on Wednesday, February 20 from 6-7 p.m. Free copies are available at the Circulation Desk. Registration is required. You can sign up in person at the library, by phone at 973-835-5044, by email at riverdalelibrarykids@nac.net, or online by clicking here
