Last year we read a bunch of books with our Harris Memorial Library book clubs, including This Heart of Mine by C. C. Hunter, Everything Here is Beautiful by Mira T. Lee, The Monuments Men by Robert M. Edsel, Unbroken by Laura Hillenbrand, A Meal in Winter by Hubert Mingarelli, and The Book Thief by Markus Zusak, and this year we’ll be continuing the trend!
We’ll kick the year off reading It’s All Relative by A.J. Jacobs while exploring our family trees and being introduced to a selection of online genealogical tools, and, for the World War II Book and Movie Club we’ll start by reading (and then watching) The Zookeeper’s Wife by Diane Ackerman.
The World War II Book and Movie Club will also be reading The Pianist by Wladyslaw Szpilman, Between Shades of Gray by Ruta Sepetys, Saving Private Ryan by Max Allan Collins, Defiance by Nechama Tec, Caging Skies by Christine Luenens, and Schindler’s List by Thomas Keneally.
