SUMMARY:July Book Club: White Ivy by Susie Yang
DESCRIPTION:3:00 p.m.\, Thursday\, July 28\, 2022\nWhite Ivy by Susie Yang\n \nIvy Lin is a thief and a liar—but you’d never know it by looking at her. Raised outside of Boston\, she is taught how to pilfer items from yard sales and second-hand shops by her immigrant grandmother. Thieving allows Ivy to accumulate the trappings of a suburban teen—and\, most importantly\, to attract the attention of Gideon Speyer\, the golden boy of a wealthy political family. But when Ivy’s mother discovers her trespasses\, punishment is swift and Ivy is sent to China\, where her dream instantly evaporates. Filled with surprising twists and offering sharp insights into the immigrant experience\, White Ivy is both a love triangle and a coming-of-age story\, as well as a glimpse into the dark side of a woman who yearns for success at any cost. \nPlease join us for all our upcoming in-person Book Club meetings. We also will offer Zoom platform meetings for those not comfortable meeting in person at this time. \nClick here to download the flyer for all the book club meetings.

SUMMARY:April Book Club: Murder in Old Bombay by Nev March
DESCRIPTION:3:00 p.m.\, Thursday\, April 28\, 2022\nMurder in Old Bombay by Nev March\n \nIn 1892\, Bombay is the center of British India. Nearby\, Capt. Jim Agnihotri lies in Poona military hospital recovering from a skirmish on the wild northern frontier\, with little to do but re-read the tales of his idol\, Sherlock Holmes\, and browse the daily papers. The case that catches Captain Jim’s attention is being called the crime of the century: Two women fell from the busy university’s clock tower in broad daylight. Moved by Adi\, the widower of one of the victims — his certainty that his wife and sister did not commit suicide — Captain Jim approaches the Parsee family and is hired to investigate what happened that terrible afternoon. \nBased on a true story\, and set against the vibrant backdrop of colonial India\, Nev March’s Minotaur Books/Mystery Writers of America First Crime Novel Award-winning lyrical debut\, Murder in Old Bombay\, brings this tumultuous historical age to life. \nPlease join us for all our upcoming in-person Book Club meetings.

SUMMARY:January Book Club: Interior Chinatown by Charles Yu
DESCRIPTION:3:00 p.m.\, Thursday\, January 27\, 2022\nInterior Chinatown by Charles Yu\n \nWillis Wu doesn’t perceive himself as a protagonist\, even in his own life — he’s merely Generic Asian Man. Every day\, he leaves his tiny room in a Chinatown SRO and enters the Golden Palace restaurant\, where Black and White\, a procedural cop show\, is in perpetual production. He’s a bit player here\, too. . . but he dreams of being Kung Fu Guy\, the highest aspiration he can imagine for a Chinatown denizen. Or is it? \nPlease join us for all our upcoming in-person Book Club meetings. We also will offer Zoom platform meetings for those not comfortable meeting in person at this time. *Please note start time change. \nClick here to download the flyer for all the book club meetings.
