Novel Book Club – Thursday April 21, 2022, 6:00 pm – 7:00 pm

Our Novel Book Club resumes in-person meetings.  The April book is: Hench by Natalie Zina Walschots.  Anna does boring things for terrible people because even criminals need office help and she needs a job. Working for a monster lurking beneath the surface of the world isn’t glamorous. But is it really worse than working for an oil conglomerate or an insurance company? In this economy? As a temp, she’s just a cog in the machine. But when she finally gets a promising assignment, everything goes very wrong, and an encounter with the so-called “hero” leaves her badly injured. And, to her horror, compared to the other bodies strewn about, she’s the lucky one.  Pop by the library to pick up your copy.
