Langlois Library Reader Book Group

Date: 

Thursday, January 13, 2022 - 3:00pm

The Langlois Library Book Group is a readers group that meets monthly at the Library. The group selects a book for each month, and members then read the selected title and meet to discuss it. The meetings are held on  the second Thursday of each month @ 3: 30 pm at the library.  New members always welcome. Even if you haven't read the month's book, drop in and see  what a lively group we are. Our selection of books is very eclectic  -ranging from best sellers to the classics, fiction to non fiction. We've even read the poem/play: T.S. Elliot's  Murder in the Cathedral.  We are proud of the fact that we are into our 8th year.
