SUMMARY:JFHML Book Club
DESCRIPTION:Join the Library’s adult book club that meets the third Thursday of every month at 5:00! \nExtra copies of the book are available at the front desk! \nOur March selection is Piranesi by Susanna Clarke. \nBook Summary: \n\n\n\n\n\nPiranesi’s house is no ordinary building: its rooms are infinite\, its corridors endless\, its walls are lined with thousands upon thousands of statues\, each one different from all the others. Within the labyrinth of halls an ocean is imprisoned; waves thunder up staircases\, rooms are flooded in an instant. But Piranesi is not afraid; he understands the tides as he understands the pattern of the labyrinth itself. He lives to explore the house. \nThere is one other person in the house—a man called The Other\, who visits Piranesi twice a week and asks for help with research into A Great and Secret Knowledge. But as Piranesi explores\, evidence emerges of another person\, and a terrible truth begins to unravel\, revealing a world beyond the one Piranesi has always known.

SUMMARY:Banned Book Club
DESCRIPTION:Every month we’ll read a book that has been banned or challenged. We’ve picked the first few reads\, but we want your suggestions for what we read going forward! \nBanned Book Club will meet the third Tuesday of each month. \nOur pick for March is The Carnival at Bray by Jessie Ann Foley. \nBook Summary: \nIt’s 1993\, and Generation X pulses to the beat of Kurt Cobain and the grunge movement. Sixteen-year-old Maggie Lynch is uprooted from big-city Chicago to a windswept town on the Irish Sea. Surviving on care packages of Spin magazine and Twizzlers from her rocker uncle Kevin\, she wonders if she’ll ever find her place in this new world. When first love and sudden death simultaneously strike\, a naive but determined Maggie embarks on a forbidden pilgrimage that will take her to a seedy part of Dublin and on to a life- altering night in Rome to fulfill a dying wish. Through it all\, Maggie discovers an untapped inner strength to do the most difficult but rewarding thing of all\, live..

SUMMARY:Jane Austen Book Club

While spending a few weeks in Bath with a family friend\, Catherine meets and falls in love with Henry Tilney\, who invites her to visit his family estate\, Northanger Abbey. Once there\, Catherine\, a great reader of Gothic thrillers\, lets the shadowy atmosphere of the old mansion fill her mind with terrible suspicions. What is the mystery surrounding the death of Henry’s mother? Is the family concealing a terrible secret within the elegant rooms of the Abbey? Can she trust Henry\, or is he part of an evil conspiracy? Catherine finds dreadful portents in the most prosaic events\, until Henry persuades her to see the peril in confusing life with art.

SUMMARY:Tales Retold Book Club
DESCRIPTION:We will be meeting on the first Tuesday of every month\, to read and discuss original works and spin-offs or retellings based on them. \nOur March pick is a Mansfield Park Retelling. \nThis Motherless Land by Nikki May. \nSummary: \nQuiet Funke is happy in Nigeria. She loves her art teacher mother\, her professor father\, and even her annoying little brother (most of the time). But when tragedy strikes\, she’s sent to England\, a place she knows only from her mother’s stories. To her dismay\, she finds the much-lauded estate dilapidated\, the food tasteless\, the weather grey. Worse still\, her mother’s family are cold and distant. With one exception: her cousin Liv. \nFree-spirited Liv has always wanted to break free of her joyless family. She becomes fiercely protective of her little cousin\, and her warmth and kindness give Funke a place to heal. The two girls grow into adulthood the closest of friends. \nBut the choices their mothers made haunt Funke and Liv and when a second tragedy occurs their friendship is torn apart. Against the long shadow of their shared family history\, each woman will struggle to chart a path forward\, separated by country\, misunderstanding\, and ambition.

SUMMARY:JFHML Book Club
DESCRIPTION:Join the Library’s adult book club that meets the third Thursday of every month at 5:00! \nExtra copies of the book are available at the front desk! \nOur February selection is The Love of My Afterlife by Kirsty Greenwood. \nBook Summary: \nIf she wasn’t dead already\, Delphie would be dying of embarrassment. Not only did she just die by choking on a microwaveable burger\, she’s also now standing in her “sparkle and shine” nightie in front of the hottest man she’s ever seen. And he’s smiling at her. \nAs they start to chat\, everything else becomes background noise. That is\, until someone comes running through a door yelling something about a huge mistake and sends the dreamy stranger back down to Earth. And here Delphie was thinking her luck might be different in the afterlife. \nWhen Delphie is offered a deal in which she can return to Earth and reconnect with the mysterious man\, she jumps at the opportunity to find her possible soulmate and a fresh start. But to find him in a city of millions\, Delphie is going to have to listen to her heart\, learn to ask for help\, and perhaps even see the magic in the life she’s leaving behind. . . .

SUMMARY:Banned Book Club
DESCRIPTION:Join us for  Banned Book Club on February 17th @ 5:30 pm \nEvery month we’ll read a book that has been banned or challenged. We’ve picked the first few reads\, but we want your suggestions for what we read going forward! \nBanned Book Club will meet the third Tuesday of each month. \nOur pick for February is Darius the Great Is Not Okay by Adib Khorram \nBook Summary: \nDarius Kellner speaks better Klingon than Farsi\, and he knows more about Hobbit social cues than Persian ones. He’s about to take his first-ever trip to Iran\, and it’s pretty overwhelming—especially when he’s also dealing with clinical depression\, a disapproving dad\, and a chronically anemic social life. In Iran\, he gets to know his ailing but still formidable grandfather\, his loving grandmother\, and the rest of his mom’s family for the first time. And he meets Sohrab\, the boy next door who changes everything. \nSohrab makes sure people speak English so Darius can understand what’s going on. He gets Darius an Iranian National Football Team jersey that makes him feel like a True Persian for the first time. And he understands that sometimes\, best friends don’t have to talk. Darius has never had a true friend before\, but now he’s spending his days with Sohrab playing soccer\, eating rosewater ice cream\, and sitting together for hours in their special place\, a rooftop overlooking the Yazdi skyline. \nSohrab calls him Darioush—the original Persian version of his name—and Darius has never felt more like himself than he does now that he’s Darioush to Sohrab. When it’s time to go home to America\, he’ll have to find a way to be Darioush on his own.
