Sadly, the 2018 Adult
Summer Reading Program has come to an end, but we have plenty of programs
planned for adults in the months to come. Join us for the movie I Can
Only Imagine where Christian music fans will be thrilled to learn the
origin story of a favorite song.
Get
ready for an afternoon of True Crime.
Author, Betty Brandt Passick will be
at the library to discuss her book, Gangster
In Our Midst. The
book describes one of Iowa’s neglected true crime stories of how gangster Louie La Cava, Al Capone’s bookkeeper,
descended on small town Iowa.
The
Book To Movie Club will be watching and discussing the movie
Adaptation starring Nicolas Cage and Meryl Streep.
The movie is a spoof on book to movie
adaptations where an L.A. screenwriter, played by Nicolas Cage, struggles to
adapt the book The Orchid Thief written
by Susan Orlean and played by Meryl Streep. Our next book to movie is
in recognition of Banned Book Week.
We will take a walk on the dark side and read one of the top banned books of
all time, Steinbeck’s Of Mice and Men. We will be
watching the movie in October, so sign-up to read the book today.
