Books Sandwiched In Program Resumes in January
Here’s your chance to get out of your comfort zone and read a book because it was recommended by someone who read it.
Join us in the Community Room of the Library from Noon to 1 pm beginning Wednesday, January 6, for a different kind of book club. Everyone gets a chance to tell about the book they’ve read in the last month. Everyone reads what they like but gets to hear about books they might not have heard about otherwise. It’s a chance to discover an author or a genre we might not have been interested in, then get out of our comfort zone and read a book because it was recommended by someone who read it.
Books Sandwiched In will meet the First Wednesday of every month in the Community Room of the Library.
Bring a sack lunch and any friends you think may be interested. We want to hear about the books you have been reading!
