Join us on Monday, March 12th at Red Door Brewing (400 Gold Ave SW #105) from 
5:00-7:00 pm to discuss our next book. We are reading The Only Road (Grades 3-7) by Alexandra Diaz.
Here’s a sneak peek into this award-winning book: (from Goodreads)
Twelve-year-old Jaime makes the treacherous and life-changing journey from his home in Guatemala to live with his older brother in the United States in this gripping and realistic middle grade novel.
Jaime is sitting on his bed drawing when he hears a scream. Instantly, he knows: Miguel, his cousin and best friend, is dead.
Everyone in Jaime’s small town in Guatemala knows someone who has been killed by the Alphas, a powerful gang that’s known for violence and drug trafficking. Anyone who refuses to work for them is hurt or killed—like Miguel. With Miguel gone, Jaime fears that he is next. There’s only one choice: accompanied by his cousin Ángela, Jaime must flee his home to live with his older brother in New Mexico.
Inspired by true events, The Only Road is an individual story of a boy who feels that leaving his home and risking everything is his only chance for a better life. It is a story of fear and bravery, love and loss, strangers becoming family, and one boy’s treacherous and life-changing journey.
We hope to see you there!
We’ll also be raffling off a copy of April’s featured book, How I Became a Nun by César Aira. Join us that evening to be entered!
