Are you looking for your next great read? Want to find others who love reading and the library as much as you do? Join us for a monthly Novels & Nibbles Book Club on the third Thursday of the month. We’ll be able to chat about books, enjoys some great seasonal drinks and snacks, while also talking about reading! The best part – you don’t have to read anything special or anything out of your favorite genre. Also, if you love nonfiction, that’s fantastic, too. We want to hear about anything that you are enjoying. Bring what you are currently reading or just recently finished to talk about what you liked, if you’d recommend it, and any other thoughts. This will help us to expand our patron picks display while also finding people who love reading, having a good time and more!
