Today’s book spotlight is Unwind by Neal Shusterman. In the future, teenagers who society deems “unwanted” are sent to be “unwound”—their bodies separated and used for parts. Connor, Risa, and Lev are three kids trying to escape this terrifying fate. On the run, they face impossible choices, danger at every turn, and a system that says their lives don’t matter. Unwind is fast-paced, thought-provoking, and will make you think about what it truly means to be free.  If you like heart-pounding, thought-provoking sci-fi, grab Unwind in the BJH Library today.

6th Grade Math Team is canceled today.
