Canadian Martyrs Book club by Cameron Lund

Hey Martyrs!

Are you in grade 7 or 8 and love to read? Well now there's a club for it! Run by Miss Caldwell, a Canadian Martyrs book club has started up. Every 3 weeks the book club meets in the library and talks about the book chosen for that meeting. The first 3 books that have been chosen are as follows:

  • Enders Game By Orson Scott Card
  • The Maze Runner by James Dashner
  • The Hunger Games by Suzanne Collins.

If you have not heard of any of these books, all the more reason to join the book club. The book club was started to widen your variety of novels and help you start reading books that you otherwise would not read. So join the library book club today and have fun!

Happy reading, 

Cameron Lund - Grade 8
