Join us to discuss "Small Things Like These" by Claire Keegan this month. "It is 1985 in a small Irish town. During the weeks leading up to Christmas, Bill Furlong, a coal merchant and family man faces into his busiest season. Early one morning, while delivering an order to the local convent, Bill makes a discovery which forces him to confront both his past and the complicit silences of a town controlled by the church. An international bestseller, Small Things Like These is a deeply affecting story of hope, quiet heroism, and empathy from one of our most critically lauded and iconic writers."-From Amazon. Contact the library to get this upcoming month's book. Newcomers are welcome to attend!  

We will also be discussing the last few months' selections: "Last Bus to Wisdom" by Ivan Doig & "Aftertaste" by Daria Lavelle.
