Evie O'Neill has been exiled from her boring old hometown and shipped off to the bustling streets of New York City--and she is pos-i-toot-ly thrilled. New York is the city of speakeasies, shopping, and movie palaces! Soon enough, Evie is running with glamorous Ziegfield girls and rakish pickpockets. The only catch is Evie has to live with her Uncle Will, curator of The Museum of American Folklore, Superstition, and the Occult--also known as "The Museum of the Creepy Crawlies." When a rash of occult-based murders comes to light, Evie and her uncle are right in the thick of the investigation. And through it all, Evie has a secret: a mysterious power that could help catch the killer--if he doesn't catch her first.

This discussion is free and open to the public. Those wishing to get books signed will be asked to purchase at least one copy of The Diviners from Vroman's, and one additional copy for every 3 books they bring from home.

It’s the Roaring Twenties, and Evie is thrilled about moving to New York City—but not about living with her occult-obsessed Uncle Will. When someone is murdered, however, it’s Evie and not Will who has the (super)power to catch the killer. Ages 15 and up.

In order to have anything signed by Libba Bray, you must have a signing line ticket. One ticket is free with the purchase of The Diviners from Politics and Prose.

Our YOUR. TEEN. BOOK. CLUB. leaders are awesome. Let me introduce them here. Liz G. is the most wonderful and amazing teen-lit-world insider ever, and you can read all about her amazingly hooked-up and authorial self here. The most important thing to know about her, though, is that she loves books for teens. And she loves to talk about them with the teens who read them (and everyone else, for that matter!). The Secret Garden girl also in charge of leading the convo at Y.T.B.C. is the wonderful and astonishing Becky J. She loves to read books. You'll love her too.

There will be yummy PIZZA provided by Ballard's own Snoose Junction Pizzeria. There will be sneak-peek book GIVEAWAYS for everyone! That we'll give away every month. Books that the book people in New York (where all the book decisions are made) are very excited about!
