Snowfall Warning in Effect for 2nd Avenue Bookstore
Join us for an evening of mystery, intrigue and surprise
treats on Friday, May 11th as we celebrate the release of our good
friend John Lekich’s new novel for young adults published by Orca Books in Victoria. Already garnering terrific
reviews, The Prisoner of Snowflake Falls should be on everyone’s reading
list this spring – read it before the snow melts on Grouse.
Meet John at his book launch and he'll personalize your copy. |
School Library Journal - May 1, 2012
"There are plenty of amusing parts and the
language...is playful and Runyon-esque...This is a charming, funny
coming-of-age story with terrific writing, characters to root for, and a
completely satisfying ending to a silly caper."
CM Magazine - April 6, 2012
"It is almost impossible not to like Henry
Hollaway...Lekich has provided Henry with an engaging story and a powerful
voice. He has created a novel that has both a retro feel and contemporary
issues...Lekich encourages us to think we can predict what will happen and then
always surprises us. Recommended."
