We are reading Words on Fire by Jennifer Nielsen. While Draper Library is closed, copies of the book are available at the Sandy Library. The Book Club is held at the Draper Senior Center.

This month, we are discussing Words on Fire by Jennifer Nielsen.



Danger is never far from Audra's family farm in Lithuania. She always avoids the occupying Russian Cossack soldiers, who insist that everyone must become Russian -- they have banned Lithuanian books, religion, culture, and even the language. But Audra knows her parents are involved in something secret and perilous.

When Cossacks arrive abruptly at their door, Audra's parents insist that she flee, taking with her an important package and instructions for where to deliver it. But escape means abandoning her parents to a terrible fate.

As Audra embarks on a journey to deliver the mysterious package, she faces unimaginable risks, and soon she becomes caught up in a growing resistance movement. Can joining the underground network of book smugglers give Audra a chance to rescue her parents?


The Book Club meets on the Second Monday of each month from 12:00 to 1:00 pm at the Draper Senior Center.
