Virtual: Third Thursday Night Adult Book Club
This book club will be held virtually, hosted by Washington County Library. This month's selection is Into the Beautiful North: a novel, by Luis Alberto Urrea.
Summary: "Nineteen-year-old Nayeli works at a taco shop in her Mexican village and dreams about her father, who journeyed to the US when she was young. Recently, it has dawned on her that he isn't the only man who has left town. In fact, there are almost no men in the village--they've all gone north. While watching The Magnificent Seven, Nayeli decides to go north herself and recruit seven men--her own "Siete Magníficos"--To repopulate her hometown and protect it from the bandidos who plan on taking it over."--Provided by publisher.
Titles selected for discussion on this date and for other library book clubs can be found on the library website.
