SUMMARY:Readers' Choice Book Discussion Group - Novellas
DESCRIPTION:Take the lead in your reading! Each month\, pick a book that fits our theme—or choose from our library suggestions if you need ideas. At the meeting\, share your book\, hear what others are reading\, and enjoy a relaxed discussion about your different takes on the theme. \nWe meet the first Tuesday of each month\, starting February 3rd. For our first meeting\, we’ll be reading a novella\, a short work of fiction that’s longer than a short story but shorter than a novel—perfect for a quick read or a cozy sitting. \nFor our February 3rd kickoff meeting\, we invite you to choose any novella that catches your interest. If you’re not sure where to start check out our curated list of suggestions from the library collection to help spark ideas. Pick something new\, revisit an old favorite\, or try a genre you’ve never explored—the choice is entirely yours! Registration is suggested. \nWhether you love discovering new authors\, revisiting favorites\, or just chatting about books with fellow readers\, Readers’ Choice is a welcoming place for all!
