Book Clubs

Group of six adults sitting on a couch with books in their hands

Public Services is happy to be able to offer book clubs in a variety of genres to our adult patrons. 

Currently, we offer the "We Know Who Dunnit Mystery Book Club" for the mystery fiction fan, the "Just the Facts Non-Fiction Book Club" for those who appreciate the truth in their books, and the "Visually Speaking: A Graphic Novel Discussion Group" for fans of graphic novels. One club meets in person each month on a rotating schedule, so there are no conflicts for those who want to participate in each club. There is also a club for Spanish language speakers and readers, Club de Lectura, which meets every other month.  We provide the books, you provide the talking. Registration is easy, so come try them out!

We Know WhoDunnit Mystery Book Club

Naturally, we know whodunnit! But join us once a quarter to discuss characters, plot twists, storyline, pacing, mood, backgrounds, themes, red herrings, and whodunnit (of course).

This event is in the "Adults" group.

Just the Facts Non-Fiction Book Club

You don't need to stop reading non-fiction just because you're no longer in school! Using the infinite variety of topics in non-fiction, we choose a new subject for each read, then meet to talk about what we liked or didn't like; learned or wanted to learn more of. Don't worry; you won't be tested on the material.
