It’s time for another round of the Young Adult Cancer Book Club!

This next book club pick is Kati Gardner’s sequel, Finding Balance, to her first book, Brave Enough.  Here at Lacuna Loft, we’re really excited to read this book together!  The books are packed and ready to go and that means that it’s time for you to sign up to receive one of the 40 (our largest book club ever!!) free books that we send out to young adult cancer patients and survivors in exchange for sharing your commentary on one of the book’s chapters.

We’ll be sending the books out by the end of the month.  The reading assignments (for what chapter we’d love your commentary on) will go out then too, and we’ll start sharing your commentary in mid-February.

Once this round of book club officially starts, there are several ways for you to be involved in the book club:

• Read the book along with us and check out the Young Adult Voices blog each Monday, starting in February for the next book chapter’s installment!
• If you get behind, check out this page for all of the posts for Round 11 of the book club.
• If you’d like to contribute your comments about a chapter, email aerial@lacunaloft.org at least a few days ahead of the Monday when that chapter will be discussed, with your comments and a short bio of yourself.

Happy reading!!
