Keeping Up With Kids



Maybe you’ve already heard about this, there have been lots of other posts and notices about it, but just in case you didn’t, it is too cool to miss!  

SYNC audiobook titles are given away in pairs–a Young Adult first-in-series title is paired thematically with a Classic/Required Summer Reading title.  For example the assassin nun YA novel, Grave Mercy is paired with the Classic of palace assassination, Hamlet.  The coming week’s choices (starting tomorrow), are The Peculiar by Stefan Bachman and Oliver Twist by Charles Dickens.
