SEPTEMBER 

Karen is on vacation, but would want you to know that the September book group will be reading "The Stranger in the Woods: The extraordinary story of the last true hermit" by Michael Finkel.  We should be receiving the "READS to GO" bag of books via ILL  on Wednesday September 1st and will make those available asap.  

Many people dream of escaping modern life, but most will never act on it. This is the remarkable true story of a man who lived alone in the woods of Maine for 27 years, making this dream a reality--not out of anger at the world, but simply because he preferred to live on his own.

For August

I'm going on vacation at the end of the month so there is no specific book for August. However....Cindy Garland has generously volunteered to lead the group in discussing (what else??) BOOKS!  Have you read something great lately? Have an all-time favorite that you think would be great for a discussion? We’d like to compile everyone’s suggestions prior to the meeting date of August 25^th.  Please email your list of 2 or 3 books (or more if you so choose) with a descriptive line or 2 about each book to info@hopkintontownlibrary.org and we will put together a handout that everyone can take home. Or just come and listen to everyone’s suggestions on WEDNESDAY AUGUST 25^th at 1pm in the Community Room.

Have a great rest of your summer!  Karen
