The next meeting of the Newbury Book Discussion Group is scheduled for Thursday, Oct. 4th, 7 PM at the Tenney Memorial Library. This month we are reading the page-turner novel, "The Great Alone," by Kristin Hannah. "Hannah's follow-up to her series of blockbuster bestsellers will thrill her fans with its combination of Greek tragedy, Romeo and Juliet-like coming-of-age story, and domestic potboiler. She re-creates in magical detail the lives of Alaska's homesteaders in both of the state's seasons (they really only have two) and is just as specific and authentic in her depiction of the spiritual wounds of post-Vietnam America. A tour de force." — Kirkus Reviews, starred review. Copies of the book are available through interlibrary loan at your local library. Everyone is encouraged to join our monthly discussions - just show up!
