Join us for our monthly book club, where we read thought provoking fiction and get together to share our thoughts, different interpretations, and whatever the book left us thinking about. Whether you read all the time or are just trying to read more, everyone is welcome. **This Month's Book: The Custom of the Country by Edith Wharton** Widely regarded as one of Wharton's finest works, it explores ambition, wealth, status and relationships in ways that still feel surprisingly relevant today. Wharton was also the first woman to win the Pulitzer Prize for Fiction, although for a different novel, The Age of Innocence. **IMPORTANT: Please only RSVP if you are planning to finish the book. If you've RSVP'd but don't think you'll be able to finish it, please change your RSVP to No in advance rather than on the last day, so someone else can take your place. Regulars get priority when moving from the waitlist to confirmed** **No show policy: If you can no longer attend, please cancel your spot at least 24 hours in advance so someone else can take it.
