Our book club meets on the last Wednesday of every month at 1:30 p.m. We read a wide variety of books and enjoy discussing our likes and dislikes!

If you are interested in joining our group, just stop by the library and ask for the current selection. The books are provided on loan to us by the Potter-Tioga Library System.

Current book: Every Last Cuckoo by Kate Maloy

At age seventy-five, Sarah thought that her life was settled and assured: she and Charles would live out their days in the quiet comfort of their rural Vermont home. But now, with Charles gone, Sarah is unable to find peace. That is, until her home unforeseeably becomes an unruly refuge for wayward souls. First comes her teenage granddaughter Lottie, who can’t abide living with her mother. She’s soon joined by two similarly displaced young friends; an Israeli soldier who needs a retreat; a young mother and son who’ve lost their home to a fire; and a woman and her infant fleeing a violent partner.

In the tradition of Jane Smiley and Sue Miller, author Kate Maloy has crafted a wise and gratifying novel about a woman who finds the most rewarding role of her life just when she thought the best years were over.
