Attention fellow readers and book lovers!
Are you an avid reader looking to discuss novels by popular and trending authors with other readers? If so, our Bookish Vibes book club is for you! Bookish Vibes meets monthly at 7pm via Zoom and is all about “vibing” with a great read. Our next meeting will be held on Wednesday, October 11th at 7pm, where we will be discussing The Nature of Fragile Things by Susan Meissner. The best part? Susan Meissner will also be zooming into our discussion!
From the Publisher: April 18, 1906: A massive earthquake rocks San Francisco just before daybreak, igniting a devouring inferno. Lives are lost, lives are shattered, but some rise from the ashes forever changed. Sophie Whalen is a young Irish immigrant so desperate to get out of a New York tenement that she answers a mail-order bride ad and agrees to marry a man she knows nothing about. San Francisco widower Martin Hocking proves to be as aloof as he is mesmerizingly beautiful. While Sophie quickly develops deep affection for Kat, Martin’s silent five-year-old daughter, his odd behavior leaves her with the uneasy feeling that something about her newfound situation isn’t right.
Copies of the novel will be available for you to borrow from the Patron Services Desk. You can register for our upcoming Bookish Vibes meeting, here. The day before the event an email with information on how to access the Zoom meeting will be sent to you.
We hope to see you at our October meeting!
-Jessica, Head of Adult Services & Acquisitions
