January Book Club Meeting

Thought about joining a book club? Haven't gotten around to it? Let the New Year be the time to join the Riverdale Public Library Book Discussion Group. The January 27 selection is Outlander by Diane Gabaldon. "In 1945, Claire Randall, a former combat nurse, is back from the war and reunited with her husband on a second honeymoon--when she innocently touches a boulder in one of the ancient stone circles that dot the British Isles. Suddenly she is a Sassenach—an "outlander"—in a Scotland torn by war and raiding border clans in the year of our Lord...1743."
