One Book One City: Youth Book Discussion of Olivetti

Tuesday, 10/15/2024 - Tuesday, 10/15/2024
06:00pm - 07:00pm

Join us in a discussion of Olivetti by Allie Millington

Olivetti is our choice for this year’s One Book, One City Tween Challenge. We will be having a friendly discussion of Olivetti at the library on Oct 15 at 6pm. This event is open to ages 8+. For anyone not able to attend in person, we will have a link where you can join virtually.

One Book, One City is a citywide literary event that encourages members of the Powder Springs community to read the same book at the same time. This is a joint venture between the City of Powder Springs, the Book Worm Bookstore, and the Powder Springs Public Library. Through reading and discussing one book, we hope to help bring the community closer together and to make reading a lifelong pursuit.

About the book:

 “In Allie Millington’s debut middle grade novel, Olivetti, a long-forgotten typewriter, by some mysterious force, begins to communicate with a 12-year-old boy as he searches for his missing mother. Here, Millington reflects on the old-fashioned charm of typewriters, and the universal desire for connection through storytelling.” Publishers Weekly
