August Mystery Bookclub
Details
For the month of August, we are breaking our rule of reading books a year after they are out because this was so much fun to read and we all need to read it now. We will be reading The Book Witch by Meg Shaffer. Description:
Rainy March is a proud, third-generation Book Witch, sworn to defend works of fiction from all foes real and imaginary. With her magical umbrella and feline familiar, she jumps in and out of novels to fix malicious alterations and rogue heroes.
Book Witches live by a strict code: Real people belong in the real world; fictional characters belong in works of fiction. Do not eat, drink, or sleep inside a fictional world, lest you become part of the story. Falling in love with a fictional character? Don’t even think about it.
When her beloved grandfather disappears and a priceless book is stolen, there’s only one person she trusts to help her solve the case: the Duke, her favorite fictional detective. Their quest takes them through the worlds of Alice in Wonderland, King Arthur, and other classics that will reveal hidden enemies and long-buried family secrets.
