Join us for our Saturday Morning Book Discussion. This month we are reading "The Ten Thousand Doors of January" by Alix Harrow. In the early 1900s, a young woman embarks on a fantastical journey of self-discovery after finding a mysterious book in this captivating and lyrical debut. In a sprawling mansion filled with peculiar treasures, January Scaller is a curiosity herself. As the ward of the wealthy Mr. Locke, she feels little different from the artifacts that decorate the halls: carefully maintained, largely ignored, and utterly out of place. Then she finds a strange book. A book that carries the scent of other worlds, and tells a tale of secret doors, of love, adventure and danger. Each page turn reveals impossible truths about the world and January discovers a story increasingly entwined with her own. Stop by reference to pick up a copy. Saturday Morning Book Discussion is the first Saturday of every month. https://stevensmemlib.assabetinteractive.com/calendar/saturday-morning-book-discussion-the-ten-thousand-doors-of-january/
