Fall for Anything
Courtney Summers

I took this book home on a whim, and was pleasantly surprised how much I enjoyed it. The story is about Eddie, a girl who is struggling with the suicide of her father. Full of grief, Eddie continually goes to the old warehouse, which is the site of his death, hoping for answers. One day she accidentally runs into his former student and assistant at the warehouse. Together they discover a trail left by her father that may lead to answers about his death. This book has an imaginative storyline and the author created real characters with real emotions. Just fantastic! Come to Bistro Book Club on Wednesdays to get your hands on this pre-published copy so you may solve the mystery!

Lions, tigers, and unicorns! Oh my! Unicorns definitely need to be followed up by an "oh my" because in this story they are venomous killers. Killer unicorns, sounds corny doesn't it, but believe me, it was a enthralling read. It begins like many teen books, the daughter, Astrid, thinks her mom is crazy and she is struggling to move past this and be popular. One night she invites her boyfriend over to hang out while she babysits. To Astrid's horror, the boyfriend is gored by a unicorn in the yard, which means her mom isn't loony after all! Almost immediately, Astrid's mom sends her to Rome to train to be a unicorn hunter. Apparently, their family comes from a long line of unicorn hunters, and she is destined to be one of the most skilled. Definitely read this book if you enjoy fantasy and a little blood! The second book in this series, Ascendant, was just released, so look for it as well on the shelves.
