Book Discussion Groups - Pick up your reading material now!
The
Community Church Book Group will meet on Tuesday, October 13 for both the
afternoon group- from 2-4 PM - and the evening group from 7-8:30 PM. Each
month, both groups will cover the same book and the selected titles will be
available from the library for 30 days. The book for the October 13 meeting,
The Heart is a Lonely Hunter by Carson McCullers, is available now at the
Sebastopol Library.
Here’s how it works:
1. You will need a library card. If you don’t already have one, you can get one at any branch of the Sonoma County Library. There is no charge.
2. Go to the Reference Desk of the Sebastopol Library and identify yourself as a member of the Community Church Book Group. The Reference Librarian will give you the book.
3. Go to the Circulation Desk and check out the book. You will be able to keep the book for 30 days and even renew it if necessary. You can renew by email or telephone.
4. The book for October, The Heart is a Lonely Hunter, is available now. You will have a month to read each book. The book for November will be available October 1 and the book for December will be available November 1.
Please sign up to be on the Book Group notification list – you will be notified what the book selection is for each month. The book titles will also be posted in the church newsletter and the Sunday bulletin. The books are selected from titles available to book groups from the Sonoma County Library. Call the church office at 823-2484 to sign up or for more information.
The next meeting dates are October 13, November 3 and December 1 each meeting at 2 PM and 7 PM. Rosemary welcomes your feedback and suggestions for books to discuss.
