The Allentown Public Library book group provides a platform for library patrons to meet and discuss their favorite novels, short stories, memoirs, and other popular works.  The group is very casual, and no background in literature is required or needed.  We meet on the 4^th Tuesday of every month @ 6:00 pm in the library conference room on the basement level.  Group members can bring suggestions for future books, and the group as a whole votes on which will be discussed next. 

On June 24, the book group will be discussing the Studs Terkel oral history Working. On July 22, Ian McEwan's novel Amsterdam, winner of the Booker Prize for literature. And, on August 26, we wrap up the summer with The Language Instinct by Steven Pinker.

            All books are available for borrowing from the Allentown Public Library.  For questions regarding the book group please contact Chris Martin at 610-820-2400, extension 1, or at martincc@allentownpl.org

 

EVERYONE IS WELCOME!
