BCTC Common Read

The House in the Cerulean Sea

Students, staff, and faculty will read The House in the Cerulean Sea by TJ Klune and will explore together the themes of the novel through BCTC Common Read events throughout the year.

"Linus Baker is a by-the-book case worker in the Department in Charge of Magical Youth. He's tasked with determining whether six dangerous magical children are likely to bring about the end of the world.

Arthur Parnassus is the master of the orphanage. He would do anything to keep the children safe, even if it means the world will burn. And his secrets will come to light.

The House in the Cerulean Sea is an enchanting love story, masterfully told, about the profound experience of discovering an unlikely family in an unexpected place?and realizing that family is yours" (Macmillan).

Event information will be posted soon.
