Teen Book Club
February 19, 2020 @ 5:00 pm - 6:00 pm
FreeThe Books Around the Corner Teen Book Club is ran by the teens who attend. No adults allowed. The teens have chosen Fight Club by Chuck Palahniuk for the month of February will meet on Wednesday February 19th at 5pm. If you’re a teen interested in choosing the next book you are still more than welcome to attend!
Chuck Palahniuk showed himself to be his generation’s most visionary satirist in this, his first book. Fight Club‘s estranged narrator leaves his lackluster job when he comes under the thrall of Tyler Durden, an enigmatic young man who holds secret after-hours boxing matches in the basements of bars. There, two men fight “as long as they have to.” This is a gloriously original work that exposes the darkness at the core of our modern world.
We offer 15% discount off our book club books. Due to the time and effort we put into organizing our book clubs if you choose to purchase the book elsewhere or check it out from the library we will now be asking members who do not purchase their books at our shop to pay a $5 fee. Thank you for understanding and supporting us.
