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.  We meet monthly on the first Thursday\, come whenever you can.

SUMMARY:Third Thursday Book Discussion - The Headmaster: Frank L. Boyden\, of Deerfield by John McPhee
DESCRIPTION:In the first chapter of this biography of Frank L. Boyden\, McPhee writes: “By the late nineteen-thirties\, it had become clear that he was one of the greatest headmasters in history\, and for many years he has stood alone as\, in all probability\, the last man of his kind. He is at the near end of a skein of magnanimous despots who – no matter whether they had actually founded the places or not – created enduring schools through their own individual energies\, maintained them under their own absolute rule\, and left them forever imprinted with the own personalities.” \nThird Thursday is an informal group\, open to all\, no sign up necessary.

SUMMARY:Third Thursday Book Discussion - All the Light We Cannot See by Anthony Doerr
DESCRIPTION:“From the highly acclaimed\, multiple award-winning Anthony Doerr\, a stunningly ambitious and beautiful novel about a blind French girl and a German boy whose paths collide in occupied France as both try to survive the devastation of World War II. Marie Laure lives with her father in Paris within walking distance of the Museum of Natural History where he works as the master of the locks (there are thousands of locks in the museum). When she is six\, she goes blind\, and her father builds her a model of their neighborhood\, every house\, every manhole\, so she can memorize it with her fingers and navigate the real streets with her feet and cane. When the Germans occupy Paris\, father and daughter flee to Saint-Malo on the Brittany coast\, where Marie-Laure’s agoraphobic great uncle lives in a tall\, narrow house by the sea wall. In another world in Germany\, an orphan boy\, Werner\, grows up with his younger sister\, Jutta\, both enchanted by a crude radio Werner finds. He becomes a master at building and fixing radios\, a talent that wins him a place at an elite and brutal military academy and\, ultimately\, makes him a highly specialized tracker of the Resistance. Werner travels through the heart of Hitler Youth to the far-flung outskirts of Russia\, and finally into Saint-Malo\, where his path converges with Marie-Laure. Doerr’s gorgeous combination of soaring imagination with observation is electric. Deftly interweaving the lives of Marie-Laure and Werner\, Doerr illuminates the ways\, against all odds\, people try to be good to one another. Ten years in the writing\, All the Light We Cannot See is his most ambitious and dazzling work”– Provided by publisher \nThird Thursday is an informal group\, open to all\, no sign up necessary. Reserve your book at the adult circulation desk or online.

SUMMARY:Third Thursday Book Discussion
DESCRIPTION:William Stoner is born at the end of the nineteenth century into a dirt-poor Missouri farming family. Sent to the state university to study agronomy\, he instead falls in love with English literature and embraces a scholar’s life\, so different from the hardscrabble existence he has known. And yet as the years pass\, Stoner encounters a succession of disappointments: marriage into a “proper” family estranges him from his parents; his career is stymied; his wife and daughter turn coldly away from him; a transforming experience of new love ends under threat of scandal. Driven ever deeper within himself\, Stoner rediscovers the stoic silence of his forebears and confronts an essential solitude. \nJohn Williams’s luminous and deeply moving novel is a work of quiet perfection. William Stoner emerges from it not only as an archetypal American\, but as an unlikely existential hero\, standing\, like a figure in a painting by Edward Hopper\, in stark relief against an unforgiving world. \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 - White Heat by M. J. McGrath
DESCRIPTION:Join us on the first Monday of the month for a lively discussion of this month’s title and other of life’s mysteries. Copies of the book are usually available at the circulation desk or can be reserved online or by asking at the desk. This discussion also features cheese pizza while it lasts.  Free and open to all. \n\n\n\n\n\nBooklist Reviews \n*Starred Review* On remote and sparsely populated Ellesmere Island\, half-Inuit Edie Kiglatuk\, who has never lost a client\, is the best guide in the Canadian High Arctic. Then one of two southerner white men\, who hire Edie for a hunting expedition\, is mysteriously shot and killed in an incident that local authorities cover up. When the victim’s colleague returns for a trip led by Joe Inukpuk\, Edie’s beloved stepson\, the man is lost in a blizzard\, and Joe struggles home\, incoherent and frostbitten\, and soon commits suicide. Devastated by her loss\, Edie—a 33-year-old divorcée\, recovered alcoholic\, and part-time teacher\, who was financing Joe’s nursing training—falls off the wagon temporarily before setting out to prove the connection between the recent events. With occasional help from police sergeant Derek Palliser\, a man obsessed with lemmings and a failed love affair\, she risks her life to find the truth. In a gripping debut novel\, McGrath (who has written nonfiction as Melanie McGrath) transports the reader to a land of almost incomprehensible cold and an unfamiliar but fascinating culture\, taking on issues of climate change\, energy exploration\, local politics\, and drug and alcohol abuse. Edie\, a fiercely independent woman in a male-dominated milieu\, is sure to win fans. Expect great things from this series. Copyright 2011 Booklist Reviews.\n\n\n\n\n\n  \n
