SUMMARY:Waterford Readers Book Club
DESCRIPTION:Join the library for a monthly book club! We will primarily be reading mysteries and thrillers but other genres may be included from time to time. Our pick for April 28th is Recursion by Blake Crouch. Copies are available at the check-out desk for pickup during the month of April. No registration is required. Please note that this book club takes place after the library is closed. We recommend arriving at least 15 minutes prior to the start of book club if you wish to check out items or peruse our collection. \nMEMORY MAKES REALITY. \nThat’s what New York City cop Barry Sutton is learning\, as he investigates the devastating phenomenon the media has dubbed False Memory Syndrome—a mysterious affliction that drives its victims mad with memories of a life they never lived. That’s what neuroscientist Helena Smith believes. It’s why she’s dedicated her life to creating a technology that will let us preserve our most precious memories. If she succeeds\, anyone will be able to re-experience a first kiss\, the birth of a child\, the final moment with a dying parent. As Barry searches for the truth\, he comes face to face with an opponent more terrifying than any disease—a force that attacks not just our minds but the very fabric of the past. And as its effects begin to unmake the world as we know it\, only he and Helena\, working together\, will stand a chance at defeating it.

SUMMARY:Golden Leaves Book Club
DESCRIPTION:Please join us for the Golden Leaves Book Club\, run by Shaunty McMillin\, owner of Golden Leaf Books here in Waterford. This is a book club focused on fantasy and romantasy reads. Light refreshments will be provided. No registration necessary. Please note that this book club takes place after normal library hours. We will be discussing Quicksilver by Callie Hart on May 18th from 6-7. Limited copies are available for pickup at the Waterford Public Library during the month of May. \nTwenty-four-year-old Saeris Fane is good at keeping secrets. No one knows about the strange powers she possesses\, or the fact that she has been picking pockets and stealing from the Undying Queen’s reservoirs for as long as she can remember. In the land of the unforgiving desert\, there isn’t much a girl wouldn’t do for a glass of water. But a secret is like a knot. Sooner or later\, it is bound to come undone. \nWhen Saeris comes face-to-face with Death himself\, she inadvertently reopens a gateway between realms and is transported to a land of ice and snow. The Fae have always been the stuff of myth\, of legend\, of nightmares…but it turns out they’re real\, and Saeris has landed right in the middle of a centuries-long conflict that might just get her killed. \nThe first of her kind to tread the frozen mountains of Yvelia in over a thousand years\, Saeris mistakenly binds herself to Kingfisher\, a handsome Fae warrior\, who has secrets and nefarious agendas of his own. He will use her Alchemist’s magic to protect his people\, no matter what it costs him… or her. Death has a name. It is Kingfisher of the Ajun Gate. His past is murky. His attitude stinks. And he’s the only way Saeris is going to make it home. \n

SUMMARY:Waterford Readers Book Club
DESCRIPTION:Join the library for a monthly book club! We will primarily be reading mysteries and thrillers but other genres may be included from time to time. Our pick for May 26th is The Book Club for Troublesome Women by Marie Bostwick. Copies are available at the check-out desk for pickup during the month of May. No registration is required. Please note that this book club takes place after the library is closed. We recommend arriving at least 15 minutes prior to the start of book club if you wish to check out items or peruse our collection. \nBy early 1960s standards\, Margaret Ryan\, Viv Buschetti\, and Bitsy Cobb\, suburban housewives in a brand-new “planned community” in Northern Virginia\, appear to have it all. The fact that “all” doesn’t feel like enough leaves them feeling confused and guilty\, certain the fault must lie with them. Things begin to change when they form a book club with Charlotte Gustafson–the eccentric and artsy “new neighbor” from Manhattan–and read Betty Friedan’s just-released book\, The Feminine Mystique. But is it really the book that alters the lives of these four very different women? Or is it the bond of sisterhood that helps them find courage to confront the past\, navigate turmoil in a rapidly changing world\, and see themselves in a new and limitless light?

SUMMARY:Waterford Readers Book Club
DESCRIPTION:Join the library for a monthly book club! We will primarily be reading mysteries and thrillers but other genres may be included from time to time. Our pick for June 30th is The Unmaking of June Farrow by Adrienne Young. Copies are available at the check-out desk for pickup during the month of June. No registration is required. Please note that this book club takes place after the library is closed. We recommend arriving at least 15 minutes prior to the start of book club if you wish to check out items or peruse our collection. \nIn the small mountain town of Jasper\, North Carolina\, June Farrow is waiting for fate to find her. The Farrow women are known for their thriving flower farm–and the mysterious curse that has plagued their family line. The whole town remembers the madness that led to Susanna Farrow’s disappearance\, leaving June to be raised by her grandmother and haunted by rumors. It’s been a year since June started seeing and hearing things that weren’t there. Faint wind chimes\, a voice calling her name\, and a mysterious door appearing out of nowhere–the signs of what June always knew was coming. But June is determined to end the curse once and for all\, even if she must sacrifice finding love and having a family of her own. After her grandmother’s death\, June discovers a series of cryptic clues regarding her mother’s decades-old disappearance\, except they only lead to more questions. But could the door she once assumed was a hallucination be the answer she’s been searching for?
