We're a volunteer-led Zoom book club focused on fiction and nonfiction titles. New members are always welcome.

- Oct/Nov 17: "Still Life" by Sarah Winman
Copies are available at the service desk on a first-come, first-served basis, and copies may be limited. Patrons are strongly encouraged to place holds on available print or digital copies in advance.
About this month's title: “In this thoroughly warm, witty, entertaining, and character-driven novel spanning decades, Winman shares bighearted ideas about friendship, love, art, and community….It is hard to envision a reader who won’t be smitten by Winman’s characters and their banter, like old Cressy, who takes his advice from a tree, and Claude, the blue parrot who may be Shakespeare reincarnated. These lives may not be the stuff of legend, but they are still life.” —Booklist (starred review)
