Teen Book Club - The Rest of Us Just Live Here

The Rest of Us Just Live Here by Patrick NessWednesday, October 18
from 4 - 5 p.m.
Ages 12-18

Sponsored by the Friends of Abington Library


The Rest of Us Just Live Here by Patrick Ness

What if you aren’t the Chosen One? The one who’s supposed to fight the zombies, or the soul-eating ghosts, or whatever the heck this new thing is, with the blue lights and the death? What if you’re like Mikey? Who just wants to graduate and go to prom and maybe finally work up the courage to ask Henna out before someone goes and blows up the high school. Again. Because sometimes there are problems bigger than this week’s end of the world, and sometimes you just have to find the extraordinary in your ordinary life. Even if your best friend is worshipped by mountain lions.

Sign up early for a free copy of the book.
