Book Discussion in January

Take your pick-

Joanne Fluke or Joanna Carl

Cozy mysteries with yummy plots

     After a rough start, Jim C. Hines' new book Libriomancer improves immensely. It reminds me somewhat of Jim Butcher's Harry Dresden books. There are lots of fun allusions to favorite scifi or fantasy, such as the preference of the main character, Isaac, for brown coats (Firefly).

Grit, Curiosity, and the Hidden Power of Character

Why do some children succeed while others fail?

The story we usually tell about childhood and success is the one about intelligence: success comes to those who score highest on tests, from preschool admissions to SATs.

This month only, the Just Desserts group will be meeting @ Scoop's/Brewed Expressions Coffeehouse located @ 124 S. Brooklyn Rd. Napoleon MI 49261. It is the building that the library used to be in. For more information please call 517-536-4266.
