We are excited to be back in person for Rutgers Day! This year, everyone who reads in our marathon reading will receive a copy of Shadow and Bone. Written by Leigh Bardugo, this is book one in a series featuring the adventures of Alina Starkov.
Here is quick summary:
"Orphaned and expendable, Alina Starkov is a soldier who knows she may not survive her first trek across the Shadow Folda swath of unnatural darkness crawling with monsters. But when her regiment is attacked, Alina unleashes dormant magic not even she knew she possessed.
Now Alina will enter a lavish world of royalty and intrigue as she trains with the Grisha, her countrys magical military eliteand falls under the spell of their notorious leader, the Darkling. He believes Alina can summon a force capable of destroying the Shadow Fold and reuniting their war-ravaged country, but only if she can master her untamed gift."
