A book club to discuss current best seller titles. Limited copies of the book available at the Information Desk at time of registration.

Come to our Bestseller Book Club to discuss the hottest bestsellers with fellow library patrons. Register early for our book club and we will provide a copy of the book. In July, we will read and discuss The Paris Novel by Ruth Reichl.

When her boss encourages her to time off, Stella resigns herself to honor her mother's wishes, even if a spontaneous trip to Paris is the last thing she wants. Even in a new city, Stella can't help but fall into old habits, living cautiously and frugally. But one day, she stumbles across a consignment store and tries on a fabulous vintage dress. The shopkeeper allows her to borrow it for the day if she goes on an adventure. So Stella decides to treat herself to oysters and wine for lunch, where she has a chance encounter with a dapper octogenarian art collector, Jules. He immediately recognizes Stella needs a proper introduction to the magical side of Paris and takes her under his wing. Amid decadent meals and encounters with a veritable who's who of the 1980s Paris art and culinary worlds, Stella begins to understand what it might mean to live a bigger life. --Publisher
