(For December, we will meet on the third Tuesday.) Here is the list of titles we will read in 2025 (selection and sequencing subject to availability and the whims of the club leader).   There is a monthly email newsletter with reminders and updates; if you would like to get signed up, and for any other questions, please call the Sahuarita Library at 520-594-5490.  The book for our December meeting is Maybe You Should Talk to Someone, by Lori Gottlieb. The library has very few copies, although there are a number of audiobook CDs available.
