Come to the next meeting of our newest adult book club: "Classics Book Club." What defines a classic? (Hint! It's open to interpretation!) Join us as we read through the novels that modern literature was built upon. Instead of us all reading the same thing and answering discussion questions as in a traditional library book club, we'll each get to booktalk and discuss our individual choices.
Come to the book club meeting having read some classic.
Can't think of what to read? Let our library staff give you some options.
We hope to see you there!
