A book club in which we read current and potential Hugo Award nominees.The Hugos are one of the most prestigious awards for Science Fiction and Fantasy media, and one of only a few major awards that are actually voted on by readers! Let's get together to discuss current and potential future Hugo Award nominees and decide whether we would vote for them or not.
The book selection for October is Katabasis by R.F. Kuang.
Alice Law has only ever had one goal: to become one of the brightest minds in the field of Magick. She has sacrificed everything to make that a reality—her pride, her health, her love life, and most definitely her sanity. All to work with Professor Jacob Grimes at Cambridge, the greatest magician in the world—that is, until he dies in a magical accident that could possibly be her fault.
Grimes is now in Hell, and she’s going in after him. Because his recommendation could hold her very future in his now incorporeal hands, and even death is not going to stop the pursuit of her dreams. Nor will the fact that her rival, Peter Murdoch, has come to the same conclusion.
For teen and up readers. Books can be checked out at any NLRPLS library location or online on the Libby app. We meet at Larry's Pizza in North Little Rock. Look for the table which has the book club sign. Feel free to plan to eat dinner there or just come for the discussion! For more information, contact Megan at [email protected]. No registration required.
