Join the Silver Spring Village in an engaging discussion of a variety of genres. We will be reading The Power of Regret: How Looking Backward Moves Us Forward by Daniel Pink.

We are looking for new members, so please come by! Our goal is a diverse group of adult readers who are interested in reading new and different titles. 

We meet in the third floor meeting room at 3:00 on the 4th Thursday of the month. 

This month's title is The Power of Regret: How Looking Backward Moves Us Forward by Daniel Pink. "Regret is not dangerous or abnormal, it is healthy and universal, an integral part of being human," Daniel H. Pink writes in his provocative and eye-opening new book. "Done right, it needn't bring us down; it can lift us up." Drawing from new research in social psychology, neuroscience, biology, and more, as well as from more than ten thousand people in thirty-five countries around the world who responded to his World Regret Survey-the largest of its kind ever conducted-Pink challenges the idea of regret being a drag on our self-esteem and outlook. …Packed with true stories of people's regrets as well as practical takeaways for reimagining regret as a positive force in your own life, this book shows how we can live richer, more engaged lives-with no regrets.

Next month we will read The Hate U Give by Angie Thomas.
