MCL Book Club
Marion Carnegie Library’s Book Club meets on a Saturday morning each month in MCL’s McCoskey Room. During each meeting, we discuss a book selected by members of the community. Book Club is a very low-pressure arrangement and is a great way to get to know other book lovers. We hope to see you there! 📚

Brooke can’t tell how much of it is paranoia, and how much is justified, but she’s worried. And maybe she’s right to be. Because Gideon is a man who keeps his promises…”
