The Lunch
Box Book Group meets monthly on the 4th Tuesday of the month from
noon-1:30ish pm and offers a chance to get together and discuss books on a
common theme. The goal is to talk
about the various titles we have read, allowing attendees to build a reading
list while reviewing the highlights (or lowlights) of their chosen
books. You may bring a lunch if you
desire—there will always be a light snack available. Suggested book titles for each theme are
available at the library (click on lists to the right) or you may prefer to
select another book on the theme from your library or a book store. Come
prepared to share a little bit about your book and join the wider
conversation, although it is always an option to just sit and listen.
