Book club, Halloween and more
\nAdult Book Clubs<\/strong>
\nThe Bookaholic book clubs will hold their last meetings of the year on Thursday, November 21. We will meet at our regularly scheduled times of 12p.m. at the library and 7:30p.m. at Bruno’s Bar, and we will be reading “Still Alice” by Lisa Genova. Alice Howland is a celebrated Harvard professor at the height of her career when she notices a forgetfulness creeping into her life. As confusion starts to cloud her thinking and her memory begins to fail her, she receives a devastating diagnosis: early onset Alzheimer’s disease. Fiercely independent, Alice struggles to maintain her lifestyle and live in the moment, even as her sense of self is being stripped away. The clubs will meet again in January, with the book title being announced and available for pick up in mid-December.
\nCaroling Kids<\/strong>
\nCaroling Kids at Briggs registration is now open! All kids ages 4-10 are invited to sing along at our Holiday Program as we greet Santa Claus! Practices will be Tuesdays in November (5, 12, 19 and 26) from 6:30 – 7:00 p.m. and we will perform when Santa visits the Library on Thursday, December 5 at 6:00 p.m. Sign up today!
