While we may not be able to
meet in person right now, book clubs are still a great way to connect socially
and stay engaged!
Does a good mystery capture your
interest? After you have read this month's choice, join us for a great
discussion. Each month we will read a new title from the mystery
genre. New members are always welcome.
Registration required.
In June, we are discussing When no one is watching by Alyssa
Cole. This title is available as an ebook or an audiobook from DownloadLibrary.
Sydney Green is Brooklyn born and raised, but her beloved
neighborhood seems to change every time she blinks. Condos are sprouting like
weeds, FOR SALE signs are popping up overnight, and the neighbors she's known
all her life are disappearing. To hold onto her community's past and present,
Sydney channels her frustration into a walking tour and finds an unlikely and
unwanted assistant in one of the new arrivals to the block—her neighbor Theo.
But Sydney and Theo's deep dive into history quickly becomes a dizzying
descent into paranoia and fear. Their neighbors may not have moved to the
suburbs after all, and the push to revitalize the community may be more deadly
than advertised.
When does coincidence become conspiracy? Where do people go when
gentrification pushes them out? Can Sydney and Theo trust each other—or
themselves—long enough to find out before they too disappear?
