Book Lovers' Cafe: Library Book club

We meet in the Charles Pink House (next door to the library). 

Everyone is welcome to join this library sponsored book group, made possible through the Friends of the Library. We meet on the first Monday at 2:00pm in person to discuss both fiction and nonfiction books recently published in paperback. The library purchases extra copies that may be requested from the catalog. We discuss the book selected but also spend time talking about any book a member has read and possible choices for the months ahead. We are interested in hearing about your good reads! For more information contact Melody Sky Eisler, (360) 344-3054 or email.

Please note: titles are subject to availability and may change and each kit only has a limited number of copies. Members may need to share copies.
