Join us for a special meeting of the Monday Night Bookclub! This month we are reading The Kissing Bug by Daisy Hernandez, and the author will be joining us at the start for a virtual Q&A! 

Our meeting is September 11 at 6:30pm. Read the book ahead of time, then join us for a friendly discussion. (If you don't finish the book, that's ok!) A limited number of copies are available now at the Westborough Public Library to check out at Circulation.
