Join us for our monthly book club discussion. Enjoy great reads and good conversation with fellow book lovers. REGISTRATION IS OPTIONAL AND ONLY NECESSARY IF YOU WISH TO RECEIVE A REMINDER EMAIL. Recommended for ages 18 . SUMMARY:Khaled Hosseini, the #1 New York Timesâbestselling author of The Kite Runner and A Thousand Splendid Suns, has written a new novel about how we love, how we take care of one another, and how the choices we make resonate through generations. In this tale revolving around not just parents and children but brothers and sisters, cousins and caretakers, Hosseini explores the many ways in which families nurture, wound, betray, honor, and sacrifice for one another; and how often we are surprised by the actions of those closest to us, at the times that matter most. Following its characters and the ramifications of their lives and choices and loves around the globeâfrom Kabul to Paris to San Francisco to the Greek island of Tinosâthe story expands gradually outward, becoming more emotionally complex and powerful with each turning page.

Recommended for ages 18 . SUMMARY:Heir to a fortune, Marguerite is destined for a life of prosperity and gentility. Then she is orphaned, and her guardianâan enigmatic and volatile manâspends her inheritance and insists she accompany him on an expedition to New France. That journey takes a unexpected turn when Marguerite, accused of betrayal, is brutally punished and abandoned on a small island.Once a child of privilege who dressed in gowns and laced pearls in her hair, Marguerite finds herself at the mercy of nature. As the weather turns, blanketing the island in ice, she discovers a faith sheâd never before needed.Inspired by the real life of a sixteenth-century heroine, Isola is the timeless story of a woman fighting for survival.
