Program Description

Event Details

Join us for our Saturday Breakfast Book Club! Each month, we'll read one of the novels & memoirs the New York Times designates as its "Most Notable Books" from the preceding year while enjoying coffee and refreshments. We will meet at 10 am every fourth Saturday to discuss the book; patrons have the option of attending virtually or in person.

Our February 2023 selection will be the bestselling 2021 novel Harlem Shuffle by Pulitzer Prize-winning author Colson Whitehead. Harlem Shuffle’s ingenious story plays out in a beautifully recreated New York City of the early 1960s. It’s a family saga masquerading as a crime novel, a hilarious morality play, a social novel about race and power, and ultimately a love letter to Harlem.

Copies of the book will be made available at the library's Circulation Desk. Please sign up below to participate in this month's discussion!
