Pick Your Book Club at Woodlawn Heights
Here at Woodlawn Heights we have five, yes five different Book Clubs offering a different title every month.
While four are for adults, we have a book club just for kids ages 8-12.
The Woodlawn Book Club, facilitated by Sharon Aperto, features the latest in notable fiction. They meet the second Tuesday of the month at 6 PM here at the branch.
Next month’s title is Nora Webster by Colm Tobin. In April they will be reading Fallen Angel by Daniel Silva.
The Emerald Isle Book Club features titles destined to be classics. In March they will be reading White Dresses by Mary Pflum Peterson.
April’s title is God’s Kingdom by Howard Frank Mosher.
The Aisling Center Book Club has more of an eclectic taste. They meet every third Monday of the month. March’s title is My Dream of You by Nuala O’Faolain.
The Children and Books Club not only integrates the classics of children’s literature, but also the current trends developing in the field. Our own Children’s Librarian, Rachel Hanig, will be facilitating Children and Books on March 14. The group will meet to discuss Frindle by Andrew Clements.
Can’t make it during the week? Our Banned Book Club meets every third Saturday starting March 19. Facilitated by our Adult Librarian, Lauren Ford, the first book will be The Call of the Wild by Jack London.
All books for each group will be made available for participants through the Library.
