    We’re kicking off the new year with a mystery for our Book Club selection. Any EHS student may join our book discussion during PlusTime on February 1. This month’s pick is Maureen Johnson’s mystery, Truly Devious. According to professional book reviewer, Emily Burack, this story “follows true-crime aficionado Stevie Bell after she’s admitted to Ellingham Academy in Vermont, declaring she’s going to solve the unsolved kidnapping of the founder’s wife and daughter from a century ago. It’s a page-turner mystery set at an elite school—perfect for dark academia fans.” Check out the book today in our library!
