​Senior Book Club will meet on Thursdays, with our first general meeting set for September 23rd. Join us at Google Classroom using this code:  5po3nne . We're starting strong with the Dostoyevsky classic Crime and Punishment. Though we recommend finding the Oliver Ready translation (Morven library has several), any edition will do, including audio and digital versions which are plentiful at local libraries. See Indigo Chapters for a $6 "Arc classic" paperback. See this slideshow from Ms. Brown for discussion questions. ​

Our fall/winter 2019 selections were all big hits, including The Book of Essie, The Poppy War, and Life After Life.

​Thou shalt kill.

A world with no hunger, no disease, no war, no misery. Humanity has conquered all those things, and has even conquered death. Now scythes are the only ones who can end life—and they are commanded to do so, in order to keep the size of the population under control.

Citra and Rowan are chosen to apprentice to a scythe—a role that neither wants. These teens must master the “art” of taking life, knowing that the consequence of failure could mean losing their own.

So many have anxiously awaited John Green's new novel (his first since The Fault in Our Stars.) The author had scrapped countless attempts at a new novel. Upon reading first few pages, I clearly heard John Green's voice. So excited to see what internal journey he takes on us on.

The Page Turners Book club met in September and choose Six of Crows by Leigh Bardugo. Stay turned for our next meeting date.
