Let's Talk About It!

Interested in checking out one of the library’s book clubs in July? Here’s the list:

July 14, North Regional Branch:
What really happened to the Bethany girls 30 years ago? Were they actually kidnapped and murdered? NRL’s book group, the McArthur Road Irregulars, will deal with problems of identity, in both pre- and post-DNA-testing eras, as they discuss What the Dead Know by Laura Lippman. To learn more, call 822-1998.

July 14, East Regional Branch:
Join “East of the River: the Book Club” as they discuss The Beach House by Jane Green. This captivating novel about the strength of family, friendship, and self-discovery is a great summer read. For more information, call 485-2955.

July 27, Headquarters Library:
The Great Books Discussion Group will be talking about “The Open Boat,” considered by many to be Stephen Crane’s best short story. Copies of the story and discussion questions are available at the Information Desk, HQU. Learn more by calling 483-7727, x204.

Even if you don’t join us for any of these discussions, keep on reading – and keep on filling out your reading logs for the Summer Reading Club, which wraps up on July 31.The more logs you complete, the more chances you’ll have in the drawing for the grand prize, a gift card to a local bookstore. And your attendance at any of these programs counts as one book read!
