Book Discussions

October 2007 Book:

The Attack, by Yasmina Khadra

The book discussions are held on the first Monday of each month from February through June and October through December. They are held at 7:30 pm in Building 5 at Winter Valley. We invite you to join us!

The discussions are friendly and fun and bring together members of our community who might otherwise never know each other. Books for discussion are available for sale at the Circulation Desk of the Kidder Library, but discussions are open to anyone whether or not you have read the book. Join us if you can; you are sure to find the sessions both interesting and stimulating.
