Book Club Meeting on April 8, 2026 (04/08/2026)

Wed, 08 Apr 2026 23:00:00 GMT

Our host is Jane Johnson.

Our book is "Fahrenheit 451," by Ray Bradbury.

Guy Montag is a fireman. His job is to destroy the most illegal of commodities, the printed book, along with the houses in which they are hidden. Montag never questions the destruction and ruin his actions produce, returning each day to his bland life and wife, Mildred, who spends all day with her television “family.” But when he meets an eccentric young neighbor, Clarisse, who introduces him to a past where people didn’t live in fear and to a present where one sees the world through the ideas in books instead of the mindless chatter of television, Montag begins to question everything he has ever known.

Nearly seventy years after its original publication, Ray Bradbury’s internationally acclaimed novel stands as a classic of world literature set in a bleak, dystopian future.

Our book is "The Writer: A Thriller," by James Patterson.

NYPD Detective Declan Shaw gets a call: from his partner, “How fast can you get to the Beresford building on Central Park West? There’s been a murder and the woman is asking for you.”

In the tower apartment, Shaw finds the woman waiting for him. She’s covered in blood. The body of her husband is lying dead beside her on the floor of their luxurious living room. Every book in the apartment’s floor-to-ceiling shelves is by the same author: bestselling true-crime writer Denise Morrow. "This is you?" Shaw asks the woman. "You're a writer?" Be prepared for plot twists and turns. Only one person knows the ending to this story. Is it the victim or the killer?

Book Club Meeting on June 10, 2026 (06/10/2026)

Wed, 10 Jun 2026 23:00:00 GMT

Our host is Sharon Williams.

Our book is "Marriage at Sea: A True Story of Love, Obsession and Shipwreck," by Sophie Elmhirst.

Maurice and Maralyn make an odd couple. He’s a loner, awkward and obsessive; she’s charismatic and ambitious. But they share a fear of wasting their lives, and they dream of running away from it all. What if they quit their jobs, sold their house, bought a boat, and sailed away?

In June 1972, Maurice and Maralyn set sail. For nearly a year all went well, until deep in the Pacific, a breaching whale knocked a hole in their boat and it sank beneath the waves. What ensues is a jaw-dropping fight to survive in the wild ocean with little hope of rescue. Alone together for months in a tiny rubber raft, starving and exhausted, Maurice and Maralyn have to find not only ways to stay alive but ways to get along, as their inner demons emerge and their marriage is put to the greatest of tests. Although they could run away from the world, they can’t run away from themselves.

Wed, 08 Jul 2026 23:00:00 GMT

Our host is TBD.

Our book is "The One Hundred Years of Lenni and Margot: A Novel," by Marianne Cronin.

Seventeen-year-old Lenni Pettersson lives on the Terminal Ward at the Glasgow Princess Royal Hospital. Though she has been told she’s dying, she still has plenty of living to do. Joining the hospital’s arts and crafts class, she meets the magnificent Margot, an 83-year-old, purple-pajama-wearing, fruitcake-eating rebel, who transforms Lenni in ways she never imagined.

As their friendship blooms, a world of stories opens for these unlikely companions who, between them, have been alive for one hundred years. Though their days are dwindling, both are determined to leave their mark on the world. With the help of Lenni’s doting palliative care nurse and Father Arthur, the hospital’s patient chaplain, Lenni and Margot devise a plan to create one hundred paintings showcasing the stories of the century they have lived—stories of love and loss, of courage and kindness, of unexpected tenderness and pure joy. Though the end is near, life isn’t quite done with these unforgettable women just yet.
