Virtual Event: Hiawassee Book Club

In October the Hiawassee Book Club will discuss The Wishing Game by Meg Shaffer.

Lucy Hart knows better than anyone what it’s like to grow up without parents who loved her. As a child Lucy found her solace in books, namely the Clock Island series by Jack Masterson. Now a twenty-six-year-old teacher’s aide, she can share her love of reading with seven-year-old Christopher Lamb, who was orphaned after the tragic death of his parents. Lucy would give anything to adopt Christopher, but the idea is an impossible dream without proper funds and stability. When Jack Masterson announces he’s holding a contest, Lucy is one of the four lucky contestants chosen to compete to win the one and only copy of his new book. For Lucy, the chance of winning the most sought-after book in the world means everything to her and Christopher. But first she must contend with ruthless book collectors, wily opponents, and the distractingly handsome (and grumpy) Hugo Reese, the illustrator of the Clock Island books. Meanwhile, Jack “the Mastermind” Masterson is plotting the ultimate twist ending that could change all their lives forever.
