Beyond The Book! Book Club
Tuesday, September 15 | 6:00pm
Books are better when you get to experience them together! Join us for “Beyond The Book!” Book Club, a cozy social gathering for adults who love to read, discover new perspectives, and spend a little time with fellow book lovers.
On Tuesday, September 15 at 6pm, we dive into “The Radium Girls,” the unforgettable true story of young women, corporate power, and a fight for justice that changed the workplace forever. We’ll explore the book in a fun, low pressure way. Whether you finished every page or only made it a few chapters in, there’s a seat for you!
Borrow the print book at the circulation desk or get the audiobook for FREE with a library card!
