 lune<br />Book Club Kit copies are also available at the branch.<br />This
  book was selected to celebrate due to reader popularity and member recomm

 o\;A magical island. A dangerous task. A burning secret. Linus Baker leads
  a quiet\, solitary life. At forty\, he lives in a tiny house with a devio
 us cat and his old records. As a Case Worker at the Department in Charge&n
 bsp\;Of&nbsp\;Magical Youth\, he spends his days overseeing the well-being
  of children in government-sanctioned orphanages. When Linus is unexpected
 ly summoned by Extremely Upper&nbsp\;Management&nbsp\;he's&nbsp\;given a c
 urious and highly classified assignment: travel to Marsyas Island Orphanag
 e\, where six dangerous children&nbsp\;reside: a gnome\, a sprite\, a wyve
 rn\, an unidentifiable green blob\, a were-Pomeranian\, and the Antichrist
 .&nbsp\;Linus must set aside his fears and determine whether or not they'r
 e likely to bring about the end of days.&nbsp\;But the children&nbsp\;aren
 't&nbsp\;the only secret the island keeps. Their caretaker is the charming
  and enigmatic Arthur Parnassus\, who will do anything to keep his wards s
 afe. As Arthur and Linus grow closer\, long-held secrets are exposed\, and
  Linus must make a choice: destroy a home or watch the world burn. An ench
 anting story\, masterfully told\, The House in the Cerulean Sea is about t
 he profound experience of discovering an unlikely family in an unexpected 
 place-and realizing that family is yours.&rdquo\;&nbsp\;</p>\n<p>Our book
