Book Club News for February
For February only, the Hidden Treasures Book Club and the Mystery Book Club will both read Kristen Hannah’s “Night Road.” Ms. Hannah is a NY Times best selling author who is a favorite with book clubs for her emotionally complex stories. “Night Road” offers book clubs fuel for discussion on motherhood, loss and choices. While both clubs are reading the same book, for the convenience of their members, the meetings will be held at the regular times of 10:30 am and 6:30 pm on February 15th. Copies of the book are available at the library or may be ordered online. We look forward to seeing you at the Library.
