Do you share the love of reading with a pre-teen or teen in your life? Then we have two book club meetings for you!

“The Prince of Steel Pier,” by Stacy Nockowitz. Recommended for pre-teens and teens 11+.

Joey Goodman is spending the summer at his grandparents’ struggling hotel in Atlantic City. Nobody in Joey’s big family takes him so seriously, so when his Skee-ball skills land him an unusual job offer from a local mobster, he’s thrilled to be treated like “one of the guys.” Soon Joey realizes where he really belongs: with his family, who drive him crazy, but where no one fights a battle alone.
