Book Discussion Group

Event banner featuring book cover of "The Waiting Game."

Meet to discuss a great book the first Wednesday of each month.

The May selection is The Waiting Game: The Untold Story of the Women Who Served the Tudor Queens by Nicola Clark. Every Tudor queen was surrounded by ladies-in-waiting who dressed her, guarded her privacy, and subtly steered the rhythms of court life. Their days were filled with intimate access and quiet influence—managing secrets, timing favors, and negotiating shifting alliances in a world where a whisper could matter as much as a decree. Together, their stories reveal how power often flowed through the hands of women working behind the scenes.

Pick up a copy at the front desk or drive-thru. New members always welcome. For ages 18+.
