Welcome to Rainbow Reads Teen Book Club! 

All are welcome as we read and explore books that feature LGBTQIA2S+ representation! 

For our first book, we will be reading Aiden Thomas's bestselling book, Cemetery Boys! 

"A trans boy determined to prove his gender to his traditional Latinx family summons a ghost who refuses to leave.
Yadriel has summoned a ghost, and now he can't get rid of him.
When his traditional Latinx family has problems accepting his true gender, Yadriel becomes determined to prove himself a real brujo. With the help of his cousin and best friend Maritza, he performs the ritual himself, and then sets out to find the ghost of his murdered cousin and set it free.
However, the ghost he summons is actually Julian Diaz, the school's resident bad boy, and Julian is not about to go quietly into death. He's determined to find out what happened and tie off some loose ends before he leaves. Left with no choice, Yadriel agrees to help Julian, so that they can both get what they want. But the longer Yadriel spends with Julian, the less he wants to let him leave." From the Publisher's website.

We have a copy of Cemetery Boys available for each person registered - please pick up prior to the October 20th meeting, and give yourself enough time to read the book. You won’t want to put it down!

A Zoom link will be emailed prior to the meeting. If you have any questions, please email mcampos@okotokslibrary.ca
