Online Novel Book Club – May 6, 2021 meeting will be at 7:00 pm  

The next title for discussion is: Magic Hour by Kristin Hannah.  We will have copies available here at the Library for curbside pick up. Below is a brief synopsis.

“In the rugged Pacific Northwest lies the Olympic National Forest—nearly a million acres of impenetrable darkness and impossible beauty. From deep within this old growth forest, a six-year-old girl appears. Speechless and alone, she offers no clue as to her identity, no hint of her past.”
