The Campus Bookstore has selected In the Unlikely Event by Judy Blume as its Book of the Week.

The writer of, Are You There God, It’s Me Margaret, was for decades the most popular and best-loved author of novels for young adults in North America. This is only her second novel written for adults -  the first was Summer Sisters.

In the Unlikely Event is a coming of age story that Kirkus Reviews says,  “… will be welcomed by any Blume fan who can handle three real tragedies and a few four-letter words."

The book’s list price is $34.00, though the Campus Bookstore will sell it for $20.35 through Monday, August 3.

Marketing coordinator Martin Deck reminds patrons that the store will match the price of all books with those offered by amazon.ca and chapters.indigo.ca. Read more on the Campus Bookstore website
