UD Book Club - May Meeting

April 10th, 2012
The UD Book Club will meet on Wednesday, May 16, from 12-1 in the library room L109 to discuss the book, The Thousand Autumns of Jacob De Zoet by David Mitchell.
 
From the bibliographic record:  1799, Dejima in Nagasaki harbor, a young clerk, Jacob, has a chance encounter with the disfigured daughter of a samurai doctor.  The boundaries between propriety, profit and pleasure blur until Jacob finds his vision clouded, one rash promise made and then fatefully broken–the consequences of which will extend beyond Jacob’s worst imaginings.
 
Bring your lunch or buy one at Sylvia’s Common Ground Coffee Shop and join some of your colleagues for a thought provoking discussion. Copies of the book are provided by the library.  If you’d like to get a copy, please email Sue Reiter at sreiter@dbq.edu.

Don’t Judge a Book by its Cover

April 4th, 2012

Feel guilty about judging a book by its cover? Always reading the same genre? Let us help you! Celebrate National Library Week and check out a covered book. Or as many as you like.

 

All we ask is that you wait til you’re home to unwrap it. You never know what you’ll get. You might just find your new favorite book, something you would otherwise never have ventured to read.

Have questions for YA author Lish McBride?

February 8th, 2012
Lish McBride, the author of this month’s UD Young Adult Book Club book Hold Me Closer, Necromancer, has agreed to answer any questions you guys have about the book!! Ever want to ask an author why they did something, or didn’t do something before? Want to know about her writing process? Here’s your chance!

Becky will act as conduit/moderator. Just shoot her questions you have and she’ll send them along. We don’t want to overwhelm her with questions, so she’ll eliminate any duplicates and send them in batches. We’ll share questions/answers at our February 21/22 meetings.

If you haven’t picked up a book yet, I’ve got 2 extra copies waiting for you! Just let us know you want a copy by emailing Becky Canovan.
