Forever Young Adult is a group for YA fans who are a little less “Y”(oung) and a bit more “A”(dult). Whether you're a regular YA reader or you need a break from your usual “To Read” list, all are welcome!

A Deadly Education by Naomi Novik (All available formats)

Enter a school of magic unlike any you have ever encountered: There are no teachers, no holidays, and no friendships save strategic ones. Survival is more important than any letter grade, for the school won't allow its students to leave until they graduate . . . or die. The rules are deceptively simple: Don't walk the halls alone. And beware of the monsters who lurk everywhere. El is uniquely prepared for the school's dangers. She may be without allies, but she possesses a dark power strong enough to level mountains and wipe out untold millions.
This book club is made possible by a partnership between Yonkers Public Library and White Plains Public Library.
Past Events:
The Red Palace by June Hurs (All available formats)

Joseon (Korea), 1758. There are few options available to illegitimate daughters in the capital city, but through hard work and study, eighteen-year-old Hyeon has earned a position as a palace nurse. All she wants is to keep her head down, do a good job, and perhaps finally win her estranged father's approval.
But Hyeon is suddenly thrust into the dark and dangerous world of court politics when someone murders four women in a single night, and the prime suspect is Hyeon's closest friend and mentor. Determined to prove her beloved teacher's innocence, Hyeon launches her own secret investigation.
Greetings,
I am a Librarian at a private school close to the White Plains Public Library. I am seeking an Author to come to my school and speak to the students about the book and the q&a.
Warm Regards,
Danny
Hi Daniel,
Our book club is run by library staff and we don’t currently have any author talks scheduled for this program, which is aimed at adults. You can try contacting our Teen Librarian at kcarroll@whiteplainslibrary.org
I am the author of a recently published YA dark fantasy novel, Drowntown Girl. I would be interested in submitting the book to the library, doing a reading, if that is part of special events you hold. Any interest?
Hi Timothy, I’ve passed your info on to our programming Librarian.
Hi. Would it be possible for the following book to be reviewed in an upcoming club?
https://www.barnesandnoble.com/w/misanthropy-a-j-missara/1142617331?ean=9781398407114
This doesn’t seem to be available in print in the U.S. or from any of our digital providers so we would not be able to use it for a book group, but I will mention the title to the leaders.
