Teen Book Discussion: Ready, Set, Play!
What makes a good video game? Did that particular book get published after the video game, or beforehand? For video game fans or for those who want to chat about their faves, come through for our book discussion which will feature some nonfiction titles / biographies.... we'll also probably listen to some music too (obviously). Be ready to share out some good TV recommendations and whether or not the remake/remix is better than the original! In honor of Pride Month, we'll be excited to highlight video games that feature LGBTQ+ characters and creators!
