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:March Book Club
DESCRIPTION:In every person’s story\, there is something to hide… The ornate reading room at the Boston Public Library is quiet\, until the tranquility is shattered by a woman’s terrified scream. Security guards take charge immediately\, instructing everyone inside to stay put until the threat is identified and contained. While they wait for the all-clear\, four strangers\, who’d happened to sit at the same table\, pass the time in conversation and friendships are struck. Each has his or her own reasons for being in the reading room that morning—it just happens that one is a murderer.

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.

SUMMARY:January Book Club
DESCRIPTION:December’s Book\n(No meeting for book club for December)\n~Meet Under the Mistletoe~\nby Jenny Bayliss\n\nElinor Noel—Nory for short—is quite content running her secondhand bookshop in London. Forever torn between her working-class upbringing and her classmates’ extravagant lifestyles at the posh private school she attended on scholarship\, Nory has finally figured out how to keep both at equal distance. 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 . . .

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.

SUMMARY:October Book Club
DESCRIPTION:Adult Book Club\nBook club is on Thursday\, October 27th at 7:00 pm – stop in today to pick up your copy\n\nOctober’s book club pick is Home Before Dark by Riley Sager\n\nBells that ring themselves. Record players that turn on and play music to empty rooms. Ghosts that climb out of wardrobes. Maggie Holt doesn’t believe in these things\, even though they are the details of the story that made her family famous. Twenty-five years ago\, she and her parents\, Ewan and Jess\, moved into Baneberry Hall\, a rambling Victorian estate in the Vermont woods. They spent twenty days there before fleeing in the dead of night\, an ordeal Ewan later recounted in a horror memoir\, House of Horrors. His tale of ghostly happenings and encounters with malevolent spirits became a worldwide phenomenon\, rivaling The Amityville Horror in popularity-and skepticism.\n\nMaggie has lived her life in the the shadow of her father’s book\, so when she inherits Baneberry Hall after his death\, she returns to renovate the house to prepare it for sale. However\, her homecoming is anything but warm. People from the past\, chronicled in House of Horrors\, lurk in the shadows. And locals aren’t thrilled that their small town has been made infamous thanks to Maggie’s father. Even more unnerving is Baneberry Hall itself-a place filled with relics from another era that hint at a history of dark deeds. As Maggie experiences strange occurrences straight out of Ewan’s book\, she starts to wonder if what he wrote was more fact than fiction.\n\nAlternating between Maggie’s uneasy homecoming and chapters from her father’s book\, Home Before Dark is the story of a house with long-buried secrets and a woman’s quest to uncover them-even if the truth is far more terrifying than any haunting.

SUMMARY:August Book Club
DESCRIPTION:When teenager Allison Glenn is sent to prison for a heinous crime\, she leaves behind her reputation as Linden Falls’ golden girl forever. Her parents deny the existence of their once-perfect child. Her former friends exult her downfall. Her sister\, Brynn\, faces whispered rumors every day in the hallways of their small Iowa high school. It’s Brynn—shy\, quiet Brynn—who carries the burden of what really happened that night. All she wants is to forget Allison and the past that haunts her.\n\nBut then Allison is released to a halfway house\, and is more determined than ever to speak with her estranged sister.\n\nNow their legacy of secrets is focused on one little boy. And if the truth is revealed\, the consequences will be unimaginable for the adoptive mother who loves him\, the girl who tried to protect him and the two sisters who hold the key to all that is hidden.

SUMMARY:July Book Club
DESCRIPTION:May 10\, 1940. The Netherlands was swarming with Third Reich troops. In seven days it’s entirely occupied by Nazi Germany. Joining a small resistance cell in the Dutch city of Haarlem were three teenage girls: Hannie Schaft\, and sisters Truus and Freddie Oversteegen who would soon band together to form a singular female underground squad.\n\nSmart\, fiercely political\, devoted solely to the cause\, and “with nothing to lose but their own lives\,” Hannie\, Truus\, and Freddie took terrifying direct action against Nazi targets. That included sheltering fleeing Jews\, political dissidents\, and Dutch resisters. They sabotaged bridges and railways\, and donned disguises to lead children from probable internment in concentration camps to safehouses. They covertly transported weapons and set military facilities ablaze. And they carried out the assassinations of German soldiers and traitors–on public streets and in private traps–with the courage of veteran guerilla fighters and the cunning of seasoned spies.\n\nIn telling this true story through the lens of a fearlessly unique trio of freedom fighters\, Tim Brady offers a little-known perspective of the Dutch resistance during the war. Of lives under threat; of how these courageous young women became involved in the underground; and of how their dedication evolved into dangerous\, life-threatening missions on behalf of Dutch patriots–regardless of the consequences.\nHarrowing\, emotional\, and unforgettable\, Three Ordinary Girls finally moves these three icons of resistance into the deserved forefront of world history.
