October 24 - Mystery of Mrs. Christie

I almost forgot to give a wrap-up of September's meeting! We discussed The Forest of Vanishing Stars by Kristin Harmel. This was a substitute for Where the Crawdads Sing which still had too many holds to secure enough copies for the group. Everyone attending book group loved The Forest of Vanishing Stars. This is the fourth book in a row to receive excellent ratings!


Our next book club meeting will be Monday, October 31st at 3pm in the library's large meeting room. We will be reading The Mystery of Mrs. Christie by Marie Benedict. Copies of the book are available for pickup at the front desk and the discussion sheets are available for pickup or online. At this meeting we will also start picking titles for 2023, so be sure to attend!

Summary of 
The Mystery of Mrs. Christie by Marie Benedict: "December 1926: England unleashes the largest manhunt in its history. The object of the search is not an escaped convict or a war criminal, but the missing wife of a WWI hero, up-and-coming mystery author Agatha Christie. When her car is found wrecked, empty, and abandoned near a natural spring, the country is in a frenzy. Eleven days later, Agatha reappears, claiming amnesia. She provides no answers for her disappearance. That is...until she writes a very strange book about a missing woman, a murderous husband, and a plan to expose the truth. What role did her unfaithful husband play? And what was he not telling investigators? THE MYSTERY OF MRS. CHRISTIE explores one strong woman's successful endeavor to take her history into her own hands."
