Brown Bag Book Club meets on the 4th Wednesday of the month at 1pm at the Eastern Branch. Brown Bag Book Club is a traditional, casual-atmosphere discussion group that takes place during a late-lunch hour. Books are recently published adult fiction and nonfiction titles, as well as the occasional classic or backlist novel. This program is best suited to adults. Check out a copy of our current read at the Eastern Branch. Copies are available on a first-come, first-served basis.

September's book is Ursula, Under by Ingrid Hill. In Ursula, Under, the entire nation is glued to the television as people follow the dangerous efforts to rescue Ursula Maki, a two-year-old, part-Chinese, part-Finnish child who has fallen down an abandoned mineshaft in Michigan's Upper Peninsula, in a novel that chronicles a chain of ancestors, across two thousand years, whose lives culminate in one little girl.
