SUMMARY:Romantasy Book Club - When the Moon Hatched by Sarah A Parker
DESCRIPTION:  \nLooking for a St. Albert book club that celebrates romance and fantasy? Join us for our Romantasy Book Club! We’re a friendly\, welcoming group of book lovers who enjoy losing ourselves the world of kickass FMC’s\, magical drama and book boyfriends. Whether you’re a long-time fan of the genre or just looking to meet new people\, we’d love to have you.  Some of our members are voracious readers and will have plenty of great book recs to get you started on your Romantasy reading journey. \nThis month we are reading When The Moon Hatched by Sarah A Parker \n“The Creators did not expect their beloved dragons to sail skyward upon their end. To curl into balls just beyond gravity’s grip\, littering the sky with tombstones. With moons.\nThey certainly did not expect them to fall. \nAs a valued Elding Blade of the rebellion group Fíur du Ath\, Raeve’s job is to kill. To complete orders and never get caught. When a renowned bounty hunter is employed by The Crown to capture a member of the Ath\, Raeve’s world is turned upside down. Blood spills\, hearts break\, and Raeve finds herself at the mercy of the Guild of Nobles—a group of dual-beaded elementals who intend to turn her into a political statement. Only death will set her free. \nCrushed beneath a mourning weight\, Kaan Vaegor took the head of a king and donned his melted crown. Now on a tireless quest to assuage the never-ebbing ache in his chest\, his hunt for a moonshard lures him into the belly of Gore’s notorious prison where he stumbles upon something that rips apart his perception of reality. A shackled miracle with eyes full of rage and blood on her hands. \nThe echo of the past sings louder than the Creators themselves\, and even Raeve can’t ignore the truths blaring at her from a warmer\, happier time.\nHowever.\nThere’s more to this song than meets the eye\, and some truths …\nThey’re too poisonous to swallow.” \nWe meet from 6:30 to 7:30 and you are welcome to bring any beverages or snacks you would like.  We can’t wait to meet you! \nPrevious books we’ve covered:From Blood and Ash by Jennifer L ArmentroutThe Seven Year Slip by Ashley PostenThe Book of Azrael by Amber V NicoleThe Very Secret Society of Irregular Witches by Sangu MandannaFragments of a Fallen Star by Viano OniomohA Ruinous Fate by Kaylie SmithA Reckless Oath by Kaylie SmithPowerless & Powerful by Lauren RobertsA Court This Cruel and Lovely by Stacia StarkHouse of Earth and Blood by Sarah J MaasHouse of Sky and Breath by Sarah J MaasHouse of Flame and Shadow by Sarah J MaasThe Familiar by Leigh BardugoOne Dark Window by Rachel GilligTwo Twisted Crowns by Rachel GilligPhantasma by Kaylie Smith\nEnchantra by Kaylie Smith\nBride by Ali Hazelwood\nOn Wings of Ash and Dust by Brittany Wang

SUMMARY:Romantasy Book Club - Bride by Ali Hazelwood
DESCRIPTION:Looking for a St. Albert book club that celebrates romance and fantasy? Join us for our Romantasy Book Club! We’re a friendly\, welcoming group of book lovers who enjoy losing ourselves the world of kickass FMC’s\, magical drama and book boyfriends. Whether you’re a long-time fan of the genre or just looking to meet new people\, we’d love to have you.  Some of our members are voracious readers and will have plenty of great book recs to get you started on your Romantasy reading journey. \nThis month we are reading the smash hit “Bride” by Ali Hazelwood. \n“Misery Lark\, the only daughter of the most powerful Vampyre councilman of the Southwest\, is an outcast—again. Her days of living in anonymity among the Humans are over: she has been called upon to uphold a historic peacekeeping alliance between the Vampyres and their mortal enemies\, the Weres\, and she sees little choice but to surrender herself in the exchange—again… \nWeres are ruthless and unpredictable\, and their Alpha\, Lowe Moreland\, is no exception. He rules his pack with absolute authority\, but not without justice. And\, unlike the Vampyre Council\, not without feeling. It’s clear from the way he tracks Misery’s every movement that he doesn’t trust her. If only he knew how right he was…. \nBecause Misery has her own reasons to agree to this marriage of convenience\, reasons that have nothing to do with politics or alliances\, and everything to do with the only thing she’s ever cared about. And she is willing to do whatever it takes to get back what’s hers\, even if it means a life alone in Were territory…alone with the wolf.” \nWe meet from 6:30 to 7:30 and you are welcome to bring any beverages or snacks you would like.  We can’t wait to meet you! \nPrevious books we’ve covered:From Blood and Ash by Jennifer L ArmentroutThe Seven Year Slip by Ashley PostenThe Book of Azrael by Amber V NicoleThe Very Secret Society of Irregular Witches by Sangu MandannaFragments of a Fallen Star by Viano OniomohA Ruinous Fate by Kaylie SmithA Reckless Oath by Kaylie SmithPowerless & Powerful by Lauren RobertsA Court This Cruel and Lovely by Stacia StarkHouse of Earth and Blood by Sarah J MaasHouse of Sky and Breath by Sarah J MaasHouse of Flame and Shadow by Sarah J MaasThe Familiar by Leigh BardugoOne Dark Window by Rachel GilligTwo Twisted Crowns by Rachel GilligPhantasma by Kaylie Smith\nEnchantra by Kaylie Smith

Whether you’re a long-time fan of the genre or just looking to meet new people\, we’d love to have you.  Some of our members are voracious readers and will have plenty of great book recs to get you started on your Romantasy reading journey. \nThis month\, join Romantasy Book Club as we read “Enchantra”\, the sequel to to spooky\, spicy “Phantasma” written by Kaylie Smith.  In book one we met Ophelia Grimm and in this sequel her sister Genevieve takes center stage in a life or death game of hide and seek.  This book features action\, romance and lots and lots of spice. \n“Ready or not\, the game has begun.\nGenevieve Grimm has felt adrift ever since her sister became the head of the family. So when a mysterious friend of their mother’s invites her to Italy\, she accepts. She arrives at his grand palace\, expecting passion and magic\, decadence and luxury… perhaps even a midnight ball. \nShe doesn’t expect the owner’s ruthlessly handsome son to slam the door in her face. Rowin Silver is tall\, dark\, and exceptionally rude\, and invitation or not\, he demands Genevieve leave and never come back. But Genevieve follows nobody’s orders\, especially those of arrogant rich boys. She slips inside—and immediately discovers her mistake.  Rowin and his family are caught in an insidious game of hide and seek\, where only one can win. The rest will be trapped in Hell… until the competition begins again. \nGenevieve must either join the hunt or forfeit any hope of escaping. But to her dismay\, her best chance of survival lies with Rowin. Since lovers may play as a pair\, Rowin and Genevieve agree to form an alliance under the guise of a fake courtship. However\, as they race through the game’s elaborate labyrinth\, trapped among gleaming gold and shining marble\, their loathing gives way to irresistible attraction. Only Rowin is keeping secrets\, especially when it comes to his ruthless family\, and Genevieve can’t help but wonder if she’s trapped in two treacherous games: Enchantra and the one Rowin is playing with her heart.” \n  \nWe meet from 6:30 to 7:30 and you are welcome to bring any beverages or snacks you would like.  We can’t wait to meet you! \nPrevious books we’ve covered:From Blood and Ash by Jennifer L ArmentroutThe Seven Year Slip by Ashley PostenThe Book of Azrael by Amber V NicoleThe Very Secret Society of Irregular Witches by Sangu MandannaFragments of a Fallen Star by Viano OniomohA Ruinous Fate by Kaylie SmithA Reckless Oath by Kaylie SmithPowerless & Powerful by Lauren RobertsA Court This Cruel and Lovely by Stacia StarkHouse of Earth and Blood by Sarah J MaasHouse of Sky and Breath by Sarah J MaasHouse of Flame and Shadow by Sarah J MaasThe Familiar by Leigh BardugoOne Dark Window by Rachel GilligTwo Twisted Crowns by Rachel GilligPhantasma by Kaylie Smith

SUMMARY:Casual Book Club
DESCRIPTION:At Bailey Books\, we host a casual book club that’s perfect for anyone who simply loves books. Unlike traditional book clubs\, there’s no assigned reading here. Instead\, we come together to discuss what each of us has been reading\, share recommendations\, or just chat about literature and media in general. It’s the perfect space for those who want a relaxed\, no-pressure environment to connect with fellow book lovers. \nOur casual book club is all about enjoying conversations without the stress of deadlines or required books. We often do a “show and tell\,” where members bring in cool\, interesting\, or unique books to share with the group. Whether it’s a rare find\, an old favorite\, or a new discovery\, we love seeing what everyone brings and hearing why they’re passionate about it. \nIf you enjoy discussing everything from the latest bestsellers to obscure literary gems\, or just chatting about books in general\, this group is for you. There’s no need to worry about finishing a specific book—we’re here to talk about anything and everything related to reading. From fiction to nonfiction\, graphic novels to poetry\, our conversations cover it all. \nNew members are always welcome! Our casual book club is an open and friendly space for anyone who enjoys talking about literature\, regardless of how much time you spend reading. If you’re looking for a laid-back way to connect with others who share your love of books\, join us at Bailey Books. We’d love to hear about what you’re reading and share in the joy of discovering new books together!
