February's book club pick! We will be discussing Just Kids by Patti Smith. This is a beautiful memoir of friendship, love, and an initiation into the world of art. And it is one of Michelle's favorite books ever. Discussion happens on February 28th at 6pm. Everyone will cry.
If you were worried that Angie Thomas' second novel would not be able to compete with her break out first book, stop worrying. You are not ready for how good this is. On the Come Up is the story of Bri, a sixteen year old girl that has been rapping since she was a kid. After a lifetime of feeling either invisible or seen as hoodlum by those she encounters when bused out of her neighborhood to a suburban school, Bri comes into her own. She is more than the 'Princess of the Garden', a nickname given to her because of her deceased father's legendary underground rap career.
CHB Bookclub is coming back y'all! And we are kicking things off right with Nnedi Okorafor's Binti. This is a slim read that packs a big punch so you will have plenty of time to read it before our January 31st meeting at 6pm and there will be much to discuss!
In case Sophie and Michelle gushing about this book is not enough to convince you, here's a bit about the book:
In conjunction with Denham Springs Main Street's Water / Ways exhibit at Old City Hall we welcome Lt. Gen Russel Honore as he visits with our Mayor Gerard Landry to discuss disaster recovery, community reiliency, resource management, leadership and more!
Friend of the store and librarian extraordinaire Sarah Colombo will be celebrating the release of her debut novel Subterraneans with us on 9/1!
Sarah has written science fiction novel set in the near future that probes deeply into modern society. Subterraneans addresses anxieties about being over exposed and under connected through the disappearance of Hil Mills.
