The Best of 2020 Virtual Book Club
We visited Goodreads to get the scoop on the most popular reads of 2020. First up - The Guest List by Lucy Foley. "A wedding celebration turns dark and deadly in this deliciously wicked atmospheric thriller reminiscent of Agatha Christie."
We'll gather on Thursday, January 21st at 6:30 PM from the comfort of home via Zoom. Please register on our Facebook page, website, or call the library. We have ten regular print copies available and will attempt to acquire other formats such as large print or audio CDs as needed. Use the registration process to request a meeting link, book, or ask a question.
In the meantime,
Curbside service has kept us on our feet and running. Delivery between member libraries continues. Check out the library catalog or call the library to place holds on books and movies. NY Times Bestseller lists are available in the sidebar to quickly locate hot titles. Once notified your items are ready, park in the designated slot and give us a call anytime during our modified hours, and we'll bring them out to you. Monday-Friday 10-6, and Saturday, 10-3. Don't get caught during the first storm of winter without plenty to read and watch.
