Happy December Book Club Members!

Welcome to December! This month started out snowy and cold; perfect reading weather! Let us know if what’s on your holiday wish list! In the meantime, here’s what your fellow club members are reading:

It’s a zombie Christmas for two of our members; Erika B. is reading World War Z by Max Brooks. She just started it, but says “so far, it’s engaging.” Lisa W. is reading Zone One by Colson Whitehead, another zombie-centric read.

Adam R. is reading In the Garden of Beasts by Eric Larson. “I like anything that Tom Hanks turns into a movie!”

Eric N. is reading Deception Point by Dan Brown.

Gina L. is reading 11/22/63 by Stephen King. “It’s about a man who discovers a portal to the past, and decides to try to stop the assassination of John F. Kennedy.”

Anythink libraries will be closed December 23-26 in observance of Christmas, and at 3 p.m. on December 31 in observance of New Year's Eve. Anythink Libraries will also be closed on Sunday, January 1, 2012 and Monday, January 2, 2012 in observance of New Year's Day.
