SUMMARY:Third Thursday Book Discussion - Sweetbitter by Stephanie Danler
DESCRIPTION:“A lush\, thrilling debut–a publishing event already the subject of an article in The New York Times–about a year in the life of a uniquely beguiling young woman\, set in the wild\, alluring world of a famous downtown New York restaurant. “Let’s say I was born when I came over the George Washington Bridge …” This is how we meet unforgettable Tess\, the 22-year-old at the heart of this stunning debut. Shot like a bullet from a mundane past\, she’s come to New York to escape the provincial\, to take on her destiny. After she stumbles into a coveted job at a renowned Union Square restaurant\, we spend the year with her as she learns the chaotic\, punishing\, privileged life of a “backwaiter\,” on and off duty. Her appetites are awakened\, for food\, wine\, knowledge and experience; and she’s pulled into the thrall of two other servers–a handsome bartender she falls hard for\, and an older woman whose connection to both young lovers is murky\, sensual\, and overpowering. These two will prove to be Tess’s hardest lesson of all. Sweetbitter is a story about discovery\, enchantment\, and the power of what remains after disillusionment”– Provided by publisher. \nDiscussion led by Tiffany Ehle.

SUMMARY:Mystery Book Discussion - Bluebird Bluebird by Attica Locke RESCHEDULED
DESCRIPTION:If you read this book for the January discussion which was cancelled due to the weather and you want to review it before the discussion please let us know and we will order a book for you to arrive about a week before the discussion.  \nWhen it comes to law and order\, East Texas plays by its own rules–a fact that Darren Mathews\, a black Texas Ranger\, knows all too well. Deeply ambivalent about growing up black in the lone star state\, he was the first in his family to get as far away from Texas as he could. Until duty called him home. When his allegiance to his roots puts his job in jeopardy\, he travels up Highway 59 to the small town of Lark\, where two murders–a black lawyer from Chicago and a local white woman–have stirred up a hornet’s nest of resentment. Darren must solve the crimes–and save himself in the process–before Lark’s long-simmering racial fault lines erupt. A rural noir suffused with the unique music\, color\, and nuance of East Texas\, Bluebird Bluebird is an exhilarating\, timely novel about the collision of race and justice in America. \nJoin us on the first Thursday of the month for a lively discussion of this month’s title and other of life’s mysteries. This discussion also features pizza while it lasts. Free and open to all.

SUMMARY:Third Thursday Book Discussion - A Semester of Debut Novels
DESCRIPTION:Spill\, Simmer\, Falter\, Wither by Sara Baume is the first of six debut novels we will be discussing.   \n“A debut novel already praised as “unbearably poignant and beautifully told” (Eimear McBride) this captivating story follows — over the course of four seasons — a misfit man who adopts a misfit dog. It is springtime\, and two outcasts — a man ignored\, even shunned by his village\, and the one-eyed dog he takes into his quiet\, tightly shuttered life — find each other\, by accident or fate\, and forge an unlikely connection. As their friendship grows\, their small\, seaside town suddenly takes note of them\, falsely perceiving menace where there is only mishap; the unlikely duo must take to the road. Gorgeously written in poetic and mesmerizing prose\, Spill Simmer Falter Wither has already garnered wild support in its native Ireland\, where the Irish Times pointed to Baume’s “astonishing power with language” and praised it as “a novel bursting with brio\, braggadocio and bite.” It is also a moving depiction of how — over the four seasons echoed in the title — a relationship between fellow damaged creatures can bring them both comfort. One of those rare stories that utterly\, completely imagines its way into a life most of us would never see\, it transforms us not only in our understanding of the world\, but also of ourselves. “– Provided by publisher \nDiscussion led by Tiffany Ehle. Third Thursday is open to all\, no sign up necessary. Reserve your book at the adult circulation desk or online.   \nThis program is supported in part by a grant from the Deerfield Cultural Council\, a local agency which is supported by the Massachusetts Cultural Council a state agency.

SUMMARY:Third Thursday Book Discussion - The Women in the Castle by Jessica Shattuck
DESCRIPTION:Three women\, haunted by the past and the secrets they hold Set at the end of World War II\, in a crumbling Bavarian castle that once played host to all of German high society\, a powerful and propulsive story of three widows whose lives and fates become intertwined–an affecting\, shocking\, and ultimately redemptive novel from the author of the New York Times Notable Book The Hazards of Good Breeding. Amid the ashes of Nazi Germany’s defeat\, Marianne von Lingenfels returns to the once-grand castle of her husband’s ancestors\, an imposing stone fortress now fallen into ruin following years of war. The widow of a resister murdered in the failed July 20\, 1944\, plot to assassinate Adolf Hitler\, Marianne plans to uphold the promise she made to her husband’s brave conspirators: to find and protect their wives\, her fellow resistance widows. First Marianne rescues six-year-old Martin\, the son of her dearest childhood friend\, from a Nazi reeducation home. Together\, they make their way across the smoldering wreckage of their homeland to Berlin\, where Martin’s mother\, the beautiful and naive Benita\, has fallen into the hands of occupying Red Army soldiers. Then she locates Ania\, another resister’s wife\, and her two boys\, now refugees languishing in one of the many camps that house the millions displaced by the war. As Marianne assembles this makeshift family from the ruins of her husband’s resistance movement\, she is certain their shared pain and circumstances will hold them together. But she quickly discovers that the black-and-white\, highly principled world of her privileged past has become infinitely more complicated\, filled with secrets and dark passions that threaten to tear them apart. Eventually\, all three women must come to terms with the choices that have defined their lives before\, during\, and after the war–each with their own unique share of challenges. \nThird Thursday is an informal group\, open to all\, no sign up necessary. Reserve your book at the adult circulation desk or online.

SUMMARY:Mystery Book Discussion - The One Eyed Judge by Michael Ponsor
DESCRIPTION:“When FBI agents barge into Sidney Cranmer’s home accusing him of a heinous crime\, the respected literature professor’s life becomes a nightmare. Cranmer insists the illicit material found by the agents isn’t his\, but the charge against him appears airtight\, and his academic specialty–the life and work of controversial author Lewis Carroll\, creator of Alice’s Adventures in Wonderland–convinces investigators he’s lying. Presiding over the case against Professor Cranmer\, U.S. District Judge David Norcross fears his daily confrontation with evil has made him too jaded to become a husband and father. His girlfriend\, Claire Lindemann\, teaches in the same department as the defendant and is convinced of his innocence. Soon\, she will take matters into her own hands. Meanwhile–with his love life in turmoil and his plans for the future on hold–a personal tragedy leaves Norcross responsible for his two young nieces. Unbeknownst to him\, a vengeful child predator hovers over his new family\, preparing to strike. Fast-paced\, thrilling\, and thought-provoking\, this is legal fiction at its most realistic and compelling.”–provided by publisher. \nJoin us on the first Thursday of the month for a lively discussion of this month’s title and other of life’s mysteries.

DESCRIPTION:“Preeminent illustrator Barry Moser renders the memories of his youth–in luminous drawings and candid prose–on his quest to understand how he and his identically raised brother could have become such very different men. Barry and Tommy Moser were born of the same parents\, were raised in the same small Tennessee community where they slept in the same bedroom and were poisoned by their family’s deep racism and anti-Semitism. But as they grew older\, their perspectives and their paths grew further and further apart. From attitudes about race\, to food\, politics\, and money\, the brothers began to think so differently that they could no longer find common ground\, no longer knew how to talk to each other\, and for years there was more strife between them than affection. When Barry was in his late fifties and Tommy in his early sixties\, their fragile brotherhood reached a tipping point and blew apart. From that day forward they did not speak. But fortunately\, their story does not end there. With the raw emotions that so often surface when we talk of our siblings\, Barry recalls why and how they were finally able to traverse that great divide and reconcile their kinship before it was too late. Featuring Moser’s stunning drawings\, especially commissioned for the book\, this powerful true story captures the essence of sibling relationships–all their complexities\, contradictions\, and mixed blessings”–Provided by publisher. \nThird Thursday is an informal group\, open to all\, no sign up necessary.

SUMMARY:Third Thursday Book Discussion - 'News of the World' by Paulette Jiles
DESCRIPTION:“In the aftermath of the Civil War\, an aging itinerant news reader agrees to transport a young captive of the Kiowa back to her people in this exquisitely rendered\, morally complex\, multilayered novel of historical fiction from the author of Enemy Women that explores the boundaries of family\, responsibility\, honor\, and trust.In the wake of the Civil War\, Captain Jefferson Kyle Kidd travels through northern Texas\, giving live readings from newspapers to paying audiences hungry for news of the world. An elderly widower who has lived through three wars and fought in two of them\, the captain enjoys his rootless\, solitary existence.In Wichita Falls\, he is offered a $50 gold piece to deliver a young orphan to her relatives in San Antonio. Four years earlier\, a band of Kiowa raiders killed Johanna’s parents and sister; sparing the little girl\, they raised her as one of their own. Recently rescued by the U.S. army\, the ten-year-old has once again been torn away from the only home she knows.Their 400-mile journey south through unsettled territory and unforgiving terrain proves difficult and at times dangerous. Johanna has forgotten the English language\, tries to escape at every opportunity\, throws away her shoes\, and refuses to act “civilized.” Yet as the miles pass\, the two lonely survivors tentatively begin to trust each other\, forming a bond that marks the difference between life and death in this treacherous land.Arriving in San Antonio\, the reunion is neither happy nor welcome. The captain must hand Johanna over to an aunt and uncle she does not remember–strangers who regard her as an unwanted burden. A respectable man\, Captain Kidd is faced with a terrible choice: abandon the girl to her fate or become–in the eyes of the law–a kidnapper himself”– Provided by publisher \nThird Thursday is an informal group\, open to all\, no sign up necessary.

SUMMARY:Mystery Book Discussion - Murder of a Lady by Anthony Wynne
DESCRIPTION:A “locked room” mystery – “Duchlan Castle is a gloomy\, forbidding place in the Scottish Highlands. Late one night the body of Mary Gregor\, sister of the laird of Duchlan\, is found in the castle. She has been stabbed to death in her bedroom–but the room is locked from within and the windows are barred. The only tiny clue to the culprit is a silver fish’s scale\, left on the floor next to Mary’s body. Inspector Dundas is dispatched to Duchlan to investigate the case. The Gregor family and their servants are quick–perhaps too quick–to explain that Mary was a kind and charitable woman. Dundas uncovers a more complex truth\, and the cruel character of the dead woman continues to pervade the house after her death. Soon further deaths\, equally impossible\, occur\, and the atmosphere grows ever darker. Superstitious locals believe that fish creatures from the nearby waters are responsible; but luckily for Inspector Dundas\, the gifted amateur sleuth Eustace Hailey is on the scene\, and unravels a more logical solution to this most fiendish of plots.”– Provided by publisher. \nJoin us on the first Thursday of the month for a lively discussion of this month’s title and other of life’s mysteries.

SUMMARY:Mystery Book Discussion - The Woman in Cabin 10 by Ruth Ware
DESCRIPTION:“From New York Times bestselling author of the “twisty-mystery” (Vulture) novel In a Dark\, Dark Wood\, comes The Woman in Cabin 10\, an equally suspenseful and haunting novel from Ruth Ware–this time\, set at sea. In this tightly wound\, enthralling story reminiscent of Agatha Christie’s works\, Lo Blacklock\, a journalist who writes for a travel magazine\, has just been given the assignment of a lifetime: a week on a luxury cruise with only a handful of cabins. The sky is clear\, the waters calm\, and the veneered\, select guests jovial as the exclusive cruise ship\, the Aurora\, begins her voyage in the picturesque North Sea. At first\, Lo’s stay is nothing but pleasant: the cabins are plush\, the dinner parties are sparkling\, and the guests are elegant. But as the week wears on\, frigid winds whip the deck\, gray skies fall\, and Lo witnesses what she can only describe as a dark and terrifying nightmare: a woman being thrown overboard. The problem? All passengers remain accounted for–and so\, the ship sails on as if nothing has happened\, despite Lo’s desperate attempts to convey that something (or someone) has gone terribly\, terribly wrong – (publisher summary) \nOpen to all – no sign up necessary.
