Pageturners Meet

There was a great turnout for the The Pageturners' book club meeting May 10th at the library and the group had a rousing discussion of Loving Frank, Nancy Horan's historical novel about Frank Lloyd Wright

Club members say discussions are much more animated when all members don't agree on the book, that is, when all love it or hate it, there is not much to discuss. In the case of Loving Frank several members did love the book while several members did not!

The Pageturners meet the second Monday of each month at 7:00 p.m. at the library and new members are always welcome. For June the group is reading the John Grisham novel Playing for Pizza and copies are available at the library.
