If screams of fear and lurking monsters are right up your (dark and spooky) alley, you’re in luck—this session is all about the heebie-jeebies and goosebumps! In her debut collection Man Made Monsters, winner of the prestigious Walter Award, author Andrea L. Rogers spins tales of terror, exploring how a Cherokee family navigates the frightening and the familiar across time. Meanwhile, award-winning author Sara Farizan returns with Dead Flip, which tracks a trio of best friends throughout a hair-raising mystery as they grapple with their own untold secrets. And in short story collection Our Shadows Have Claws, author and editor Yamile Saied Méndez assembles a pantheon of YA writers to weave vivid monster stories drawn from Latin mythology. With plenty of bone-chilling fun to go around with young moderators from Cinnamongirl, Inc., you won’t want to miss this haunted hour! Ages 12+.
