Such Wicked Intent, also by Kenneth Oppel

So I'm browsing the library's shelves February 1st to pull books for a "Blind-Date-a-Book" display for February (see picture at bottom!) and I luck across Oppel's Such Wicked Intent (sequel to This Dark Endeavor), so of course I had to check it out and read it immediately since I enjoyed its predecessor so much!  I enjoyed this story line just as much as the first!!! Victor, grieving his dead twin, at first gives up all interest in alchemy. But he finds a metal book-like box that may hold the answer to his desire to speak to his brother again. I highly recommend both of these titles!

And now for my display, which has garned much attention, I am happy to say...

The sign atops reads "Haven't you heard? You should never judge a book by its cover!!!  Blind date a book"  I asked my regular readers to recommended titles and write a one-sentence enticing blurb, and I added some of my recent reads to fill in the display.
