Online Book Club will focus on books that have been covered by podcasts, so that you can both read the book and listen to others’ thoughts on it as well.

After reading the book and listening to the podcast, participants will discuss the book online with our adult services librarian on GoogleMeet on Tuesday, April 19; you’ll need to have or sign up for a free gmail account to participate.
