The Bibliophile Society is currently reading WHISTLER and will be discussing on Oct 7, 4pm PT. Join us to examine memory, family, connection, grief, loss and all the messiness that sometimes clouds the truth. Ann Patchett’s beautiful novel dives into the people who come into our lives, no matter how long they stay, and the imprints they leave, and how those imprints shape who we become. Join us!
