Snohomish and Island counties—Sno-Isle Libraries is launching its inaugural community reading program, Sno-Isle Reads Together. Connect with your community as we read the same book. The selected title for the first Sno-Isle Reads Together is “Hollow Kingdom,” by Seattle author Kira Jane Buxton.
“Hollow Kingdom” is a quirky, humorous, and heroic tale following a crow in the apocalypse. Readers will recognize locations in this local story and be inspired to create a closer connection with nature. This unique story will spark reflection, discussion, and have you rooting for your new favorite corvid.
Sno-Isle Libraries will offer fun complementary programs for book discussion, wilderness survival, learning about local wildlife, zombie folklore, and more. The programs are designed to pair with “Hollow Kingdom,” but can also be enjoyed regardless of reading the book.
Our community will also have the opportunity to meet author Kira Jane Buxton. Sno-Isle Libraries will host three author events:
- May 14, 6:30 p.m. at Kamiak High School Performing Arts Center, 10801 Harbour Pointe Blvd, Mukilteo, WA 98275
- May 15, 6:30 p.m. at Coupeville High School Performing Arts Center; 501 S. Main St. Coupeville, WA 98239
- May 21, 6:30 p.m. – online, register at sno-isle.org
Sno-Isle Libraries would like to thank the Sno-Isle Libraries Foundation for their generous support. “Hollow Kingdom,” by Kira Jane Buxton is available at local libraries as an eBook, audiobook (digital and CDs), and physical copies. Join the conversation, start reading (or listening) today!
