Join us for a lively adult book club discussion held every second Saturday of the month. The library orders a limited amount of copies in advance for the next month's book club the month prior. Pick up your copy of the book at the front desk for the next month or during the book club discussion. Everyone is welcome to attend, even if you just want to listen to the book discussion.
