For two weeks from October 1 – 15, readers can borrow this Young Adult fantasy title without wait lists or holds.

OverDrive recently announced that ebook titles from Penguin Random House will move from a one copy/one user (OC/OU) model to a two-year metered access term model effective October 1st.
