SUMMARY:Fantasy Book Club - All the Scattered Stars by Via Luino
DESCRIPTION:We are honored to select Via Luino’s fantasy title\, All the Scattered Stars\, as our December Fantasy book club pick. Via is a good friend of the bookshop and we know you will love her new book as much as we do! \nThe glitter of Venice’ s lights hides a dark truth: when the floodwaters rise\, no one is safe. Koru knows better than to trust anyone but her own. \nHidden deep in the winding twists of Venice’ s narrow alleys\, Koru and her found family must disguise themselves to survive. They are Rhunlokni\, an ethnic minority gifted with the ability to channel the power of the Earth\, their Goddess. They have long been vilified and prosecuted for their strange abilities— and Koru’ s gift is the strongest of her generation. So when the police arrive in St. Mark’ s Square to arrest Koru for a crime she didn’ t commit\, she does the only thing she can— she runs. Though Koru manages to escape the police\, a larger threat is drawing near. Koru must figure out what the Goddess is trying to tell her\, protect those she loves\, and uncover the truth of her past before it’ s too late— because Venice is sinking. Tonight.

A dark figure waits and watches from beneath the willow tree across the street. Hundreds of miles away\, an ancient evil stirs in its burrow under a farmer’s cornfield. Across the country\, other buried things begin to dream in anticipation of Maggie’s demise. On her deathbed\, the old woman elicits a promise from Malcolm\, her youngest child?when she dies\, he and Violet must return her body to her birthplace in Shediak\, Maine.

SUMMARY:Babies at the Bookshop
DESCRIPTION:We love Thursdays! There aren’t a lot of opportunities for moms and caregivers to meet and socialize with their little ones. While Rocco’s Reading Room is always available for visits\, the Purple Couch would like to fill that gap by providing the time and the soft space filled with some toys and board books for little ones to explore\, giving moms and caregivers an opportunity to connect.
