Click on each book cover for more information.


In early Spring 2024 the selected book, and themes in the book, will be highlighted in a series of special events.


We are looking forward to a calendar of events that will allow participants to delve into many themes from this book.
Most events will take place during the month February 2024.
All events are free and open to the public.


Our events aim to create a shared experience that will increase appreciation for our community libraries and for our local bookstores; foster pride in the varied experiences that our area offers; and the enrichment –– culturally, intellectually, and emotionally –– that comes from the joy of reading!
