SUMMARY:November Book Club
DESCRIPTION:This will be the Book Club’s Christmas Party. Bring a book for the Grab Bag Book Exchange. There will be no Book Club in December.\n\n~ The Twelve Dates of Christmas by Jenny Bayliss ~\n\nWhen it comes to relationships\, thirty-four-year-old Kate Turner is ready to say “Bah\, humbug.” The sleepy town of Blexford\, England\, isn’t exactly brimming with prospects\, and anyway\, Kate’s found fulfillment in her career as a designer\, and in her delicious side job baking for her old friend Matt’s neighborhood café. But then her best friend signs her up for a dating agency that promises to help singles find love before the holidays. Twenty-three days until Christmas. Twelve dates with twelve different men. The odds must finally be in her favor . . . right?\nYet with each new date more disastrous than the one before–and the whole town keeping tabs on her misadventures–Kate must remind herself that sometimes love\, like mistletoe\, shows up where it’s least expected. And maybe\, just maybe\, it’s been right under her nose all along. . .

SUMMARY:August Book Club
DESCRIPTION:The Circus Train by Amita Parikh \nWhen all is lost\, how do you find the courage to keep moving forward? \n1938. Lena Papadopoulos has never quite found her place within the circus\, even as the daughter of the extraordinary headlining illusionist\, Theo. Brilliant and curious\, Lena—who uses a wheelchair after a childhood bout with polio—yearns for the real-world magic of science and medicine\, her mind stronger than the limitations placed on her by society. Then her unconventional life takes an exciting turn when she rescues Alexandre\, an orphan with his own secrets and a mysterious past. \nAs World War II escalates around them\, their friendship blossoms into something deeper while Alexandre trains as the illusionist’s apprentice. But when Theo and Alexandre are arrested and made to perform in a town for Jews set up by the Nazis\, Lena is separated from everything she knows. Forced to make her own way\, Lena must confront her doubts and dare to believe in the impossible—herself.

SUMMARY:May Book Club
DESCRIPTION:In the opening pages of Jamie Ford’s stunning debut novel\, Hotel on the Corner of Bitter and Sweet\, Henry Lee comes upon a crowd gathered outside the Panama Hotel\, once the gateway to Seattle’s Japantown. It has been boarded up for decades\, but now the new owner has made an incredible discovery: the belongings of Japanese families\, left when they were rounded up and sent to internment camps during World War II. As Henry looks on\, the owner opens a Japanese parasol. \nThis simple act takes old Henry Lee back to the 1940s\, at the height of the war\, when young Henry’s world is a jumble of confusion and excitement\, and to his father\, who is obsessed with the war in China and having Henry grow up American. While “scholarshipping” at the exclusive Rainier Elementary\, where the white kids ignore him\, Henry meets Keiko Okabe\, a young Japanese American student. Amid the chaos of blackouts\, curfews\, and FBI raids\, Henry and Keiko forge a bond of friendship–and innocent love–that transcends the long-standing prejudices of their Old World ancestors. And after Keiko and her family are swept up in the evacuations to the internment camps\, she and Henry are left only with the hope that the war will end\, and that their promise to each other will be kept. \nForty years later\, Henry Lee is certain that the parasol belonged to Keiko. In the hotel’s dark dusty basement he begins looking for signs of the Okabe family’s belongings and for a long-lost object whose value he cannot begin to measure. Now a widower\, Henry is still trying to find his voice–words that might explain the actions of his nationalistic father; words that might bridge the gap between him and his modern\, Chinese American son; words that might help him confront the choices he made many years ago. \nSet during one of the most conflicted and volatile times in American history\, Hotel on the Corner of Bitter and Sweet is an extraordinary story of commitment and enduring hope. In Henry and Keiko\, Jamie Ford has created an unforgettable duo whose story teaches us of the power of forgiveness and the human heart.

SUMMARY:April Book Club
DESCRIPTION:Last summer\, Alice Ogilvie’s basketball-star boyfriend Steve dumped her. Then she disappeared for five days. She’s not talking\, so where she went and what happened to her is the biggest mystery in Castle Cove. Or it was\, at least. But now\, another one of Steve’s girlfriends has vanished: Brooke Donovan\, Alice’s ex–best friend. And it doesn’t look like Brooke will be coming back. . . \nEnter Iris Adams\, Alice’s tutor. Iris has her own reasons for wanting to disappear\, though unlike Alice\, she doesn’t have the money or the means. That could be changed by the hefty reward Brooke’s grandmother is offering to anyone who can share information about her granddaughter’s whereabouts. The police are convinced Steve is the culprit\, but Alice isn’t so sure\, and with Iris on her side\, she just might be able to prove her theory. \nIn order to get the reward and prove Steve’s innocence\, they need to figure out who killed Brooke Donovan. And luckily Alice has exactly what they need—the complete works of Agatha Christie. If there’s anyone that can teach the girls how to solve a mystery it’s the master herself. But the town of Castle Cove holds many secrets\, and Alice and Iris have no idea how much danger they’re about to walk into.

SUMMARY:February Book Club
DESCRIPTION:Bea Schumacher is a devastatingly stylish plus-size fashion blogger who has amazing friends\, a devoted family\, legions of Insta followers—and a massively broken heart. Like the rest of America\, Bea indulges in her weekly obsession: the hit reality show Main Squeeze. The fantasy dates! The kiss-off rejections! The surprising amount of guys named Chad! But Bea is sick and tired of the lack of body diversity on the show. Since when is being a size zero a prerequisite for getting engaged on television?\n\nJust when Bea has sworn off dating altogether\, she gets an intriguing call: Main Squeeze wants her to be its next star\, surrounded by men vying for her affections. Bea agrees\, on one condition—under no circumstances will she actually fall in love. She’s in this to supercharge her career\, subvert harmful beauty standards\, inspire women across America\, and get a free hot air balloon ride. That’s it.\n\nBut when the cameras start rolling\, Bea realizes things are more complicated than she anticipated. She’s in a whirlwind of sumptuous couture\, Internet culture wars\, sexy suitors\, and an opportunity (or two\, or five) to find messy\, real-life love in the midst of a made-for-TV fairy tale. In this joyful\, wickedly observant debut\, Bea has to decide whether it might just be worth trusting these men—and herself—for a chance to live happily ever after.

So when two of her oldest friends invite their whole gang to spend the time leading up to their wedding together at the castle near their old school\, Nory must prepare herself for an emotionally complicated few days.\n\nThe reunion brings back fond memories\, but also requires Nory to dodge an ill-advised former fling. When she falls quite literally into the arms of Isaac\, the castle’s head gardener\, who has nothing but contempt for the “snobby prep school kids\,” the attraction between them is undeniable. And as Nory spends more time with Isaac during the wedding festivities\, she finds herself falling hard for the boy she used to consider an enemy. Nory and Isaac explore their common ground\, but pressures mount on all sides\, and Nory must decide what kind of life she wants to live and what sort of love is worth the risk . . .

DESCRIPTION:Walnut Library Elementary Book Club\nTris Levin thought moving from New York City to middle-of-nowhere Petersville meant life would definitely get worse…only it actually got better. But just when things are looking up\, problems start rolling in. \nHis doughnut business has a major supply issue.

There’s only one solution: The Belshaw Donut Robot. If Tris can win “Can You Cut It\,” the cutthroat competitive kids’ cooking show\, he can get the cash to buy the machine. But even with the whole town training and supporting him\, Tris isn’t sure he can live with what it takes to takes to win. \nThis sequel to The Doughnut Fix is about growing up\, family\, change\, and as always\, doughnuts. Kids with the spirit of an entrepreneur will relate to the ups and downs Tris experiences in this book. Parents and teachers\, your middle school kids will love this story!

SUMMARY:November Book Club
DESCRIPTION:On a sultry August day in 1922\, Jay Gatsby is shot dead in his West Egg swimming pool. To the police\, it appears to be an open-and-shut case of murder/suicide when the body of George Wilson\, a local mechanic\, is found in the woods nearby. \nThen a diamond hairpin is discovered in the bushes by the pool\, and three women fall under suspicion. Each holds a key that can unlock the truth to the mysterious life and death of this enigmatic millionaire.  \nDaisy Buchanan once thought she might marry Gatsby—before her family was torn apart by an unspeakable tragedy that sent her into the arms of the philandering Tom Buchanan. \nJordan Baker\, Daisy’s best friend\, guards a secret that derailed her promising golf career and threatens to ruin her friendship with Daisy as well. \nCatherine McCoy\, a suffragette\, fights for women’s freedom and independence\, and especially for her sister\, Myrtle Wilson\, who’s trapped in a terrible marriage. \nTheir stories unfold in the years leading up to that fateful summer of 1922\, when all three of their lives are on the brink of unraveling. Each woman is pulled deeper into Jay Gatsby’s romantic obsession\, with devastating consequences for all of them. \nJillian Cantor revisits the glittering Jazz Age world of F. Scott Fitzgerald’s The Great Gatsby\, retelling this timeless American classic from the women’s perspective. Beautiful Little Fools is a quintessential tale of money and power\, marriage and friendship\, love and desire\, and ultimately the murder of a man tormented by the past and driven by a destructive longing that can never be fulfilled.
