Silent Book Club – Monday, July 28th at 6:30pm

Have you heard about the new trendy reading groups where people gather to read silently? We’ll meet after hours at the library on Monday, July 28th at 6:30.  We’ll spend some time getting snacks, and grab a book from our pile to keep. Then find a cozy seat and read in a room with other readers, no conversation required!  This month’s book is Auntie Poldi and the Sicilian Lions by Mario Giordano.

“On her sixtieth birthday, Auntie Poldi retires to Sicily, intending to while away the rest of her days with good wine, a view of the sea, and few visitors. But Sicily isn’t quite the tranquil island she thought it would be. When her handsome young handyman goes missing—and is discovered murdered—she can’t help but ask questions. Soon there’s an investigation, a smoldering police inspector, a romantic entanglement, one false lead after another, a rooftop showdown, and finally, of course, Poldi herself, slightly tousled but still perfectly poised. This “masterly treat” (Times Literary Supplement) will transport you to the rocky shores of Torre Archirafi, to a Sicily full of quirky characters, scorching days, and velvety nights, alongside a protagonist who’s as fiery as the Sicilian sun.”

You can pick up a free copy of Auntie Poldi and the Sicilian Lions, or you can bring your own book to read.

This book group book is appropriate for ages 16+. Light refreshments will be served.

Registration is appreciated.
