Interested in joining? The Book Club meets the second Thursday of each month from 10:30 am to 12:00 pm. We'll talk over the book The Heaven and Earth Grocery Store by James McBride.

The book chosen for this month's discussion is The Heaven and Earth Grocery Store by James McBride. This novel is a blend of historical fiction, mystery, and literary fiction. It begins in 1972 Pottstown, Pennsylvania, with the discovery of a skeleton in a well, which unravels the secrets of the town's diverse "Chicken Hill" neighborhood.   

Copies of this book will be available at the check out desk, while supplies last.

Take a look at MCPL's adult fiction collection.
