Checkv’Em Out Book Club

The Check ‘Em Out Book Club will have its January meeting on Monday, January 9th, 2023, at 6:30PM to discuss Sulari Gentill’s “The Woman in the Library.” Copies of the book are available at both library buildings for checkout. No registration is required for this free program for adults. About the book, from www.goodreads.com: 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. Award-winning author Sulari Gentill delivers a sharply thrilling read with The Woman in the Library. This unexpectedly twisty literary adventure examines the complicated nature of friendship and shows us that words can be the most treacherous weapons of all.
