Pearl Buck Book Club

I know that summer has just begun, but some of us are looking forward to autumn as well.  Due to scheduling issues, we have decided to cancel The Vintage Book Club for the rest of the summer, but our discussion of Erewhon resulted in an exciting new idea - an author book club!  Our first featured author will be Pearl Buck and from September through May we will be meeting every 2 months during the afternoon AND evening (choose your best time!) to discuss the author and read 5 of her novels.  More information will be available in August, but in the meantime, think about it!

Spanking New Books!

We have lots of new books today, including these!

You don't want to miss this!!
