Germantown African American Authors Book Club - In-person

Join the Germantown African American Authors Book Club to discuss "This Boy We Made" by Taylor Harris.

The African American Authors Book Club will meet in the Meeting Room, located on the lower level of the library.

"One morning, Tophs, Taylor Harris's round-cheeked, lively twenty-two-month-old, wakes up listless and unresponsive. At the hospital, her maternal instincts are confirmed: something is wrong with her boy, and Taylor's life will never be the same. With every question the doctors answer about Tophs's increasingly troubling symptoms, more arise, and Taylor dives into the search for a diagnosis. This is a stirring and radiantly written examination of the bond between mother and child, full of hard-won insights about fighting for and finding meaning when nothing goes as expected."--Book jacket.

Print copies of This Boy We Made may be available at the Germantown Library after July 23rd, 2023. It is also available as an eBook and eAudiobook.
