Geek Bookclub: A Spindle Splintered

Welcome to our Chicago Geek Women Bookclub!! Please join us whether you hate or love the book. If you don't finish it, you are still welcome but expect to be spoiled. The bookclub will meet once a month to discuss the book of that month over dinner.

The book we'll be reading this month is A Spindle Splintered by Alix E. Harrow. We'll be meeting at Ranalli's in Andersonville as usual.

It's Zinnia Gray's twenty-first birthday, which is extra-special because it's the last birthday she'll ever have. When she was young, an industrial accident left Zinnia with a rare condition. Not much is known about her illness, just that no one has lived past twenty-one.

Her best friend Charm is intent on making Zinnia's last birthday special with a full sleeping beauty experience, complete with a tower and a spinning wheel. But when Zinnia pricks her finger, something strange and unexpected happens, and she finds herself falling through worlds, with another sleeping beauty, just as desperate to escape her fate.
