Description

Join us for the next edition of Teen Bookworms where we'll read the first book in Suzanne Collins’ teen dystopian* trilogy, and then we'll take a look at some other cool related novels.

Haven't read The Hunger Games yet? What are you waiting for? Already read the whole set and loved them? Either way, you’re welcome to join. Come in and dig deeper into the stories, try out our Hunger Games challenge and participate in a mock tournament here at the Library.

*Dystopia: (noun) an imaginary place where people lead dehumanized and often fearful lives. New Latin, from dys- + -topia (as in utopia)

How does it work? We'll meet over two consecutive Saturday afternoons to explore the book together, talk about the idea of "perfect societies" in literature, and do some fun related activities.

Sessions will take place two consecutive Saturday afternoons from 16h30 - 17h30:
March 17th and March 24th. Each participant must pay 5€ to cover the cost of the book which will then be yours to take home and keep. Registration is required for this activity as space is limited. To reserve a spot, email the youth librarian: or call the Library at 01 53 59 12 60.

Participation is free for library members and 10€ per session for non-members. For more information on Library memberships, visit our Become a Member page.
