Board Room Main

A book club for fans of popular fiction!

In March, we'll be discussing Absolution by Alice McDermott. 

American women--American wives--have been mostly minor characters in the literature of the Vietnam War, but in Absolution they take center stage.

Stop by either library location to pick up a copy.  This title is also available in  eBook and Audio CD formats.

AAPLD embraces inclusivity in its programs and services. To request accommodations, please email [info@aapld.org] or call (847) 458-6060 x143 at least 7 days in advance.
