SUMMARY:Sci-Fi Reading Group
DESCRIPTION:The Sci-Fi Reading Group will meet in the Quiet Reading Room from 7:00pm – 8:30pm to discuss The Scourge Between Stars by Ness Brown! \nAs acting captain of the starship Calypso\, Jacklyn Albright is responsible for keeping the last of humanity alive as they limp back to Earth from their forebears’ failed colony on a distant planet. Faced with constant threats of starvation and destruction in the treacherous minefield of interstellar space\, Jacklyn’s crew has reached their breaking point. As unrest begins to spread throughout the ship’s Wards\, a new threat emerges\, picking off crew members in grim\, bloody fashion. Jacklyn and her team must hunt down the ship’s unknown intruder if they have any hope of making it back to their solar system alive. \nThe Sci-Fi Reading Group meets the third Monday of every month and is open to curious minds\, whether or not they’ve read this month’s selection.

SUMMARY:Sci-Fi Reading Group
DESCRIPTION:The Sci-Fi Reading Group will meet in the Quiet Reading Room from 7:00pm – 8:30pm to discuss A Canticle for Leibowitz by Walter M. Miller Jr! \nIn the depths of the Utah desert\, long after the Flame Deluge has scoured the earth clean\, a monk of the Order of Saint Leibowitz has made a miraculous discovery: holy relics from the life of the great saint himself\, including the blessed blueprint\, the sacred shopping list\, and the hallowed shrine of the Fallout Shelter.In a terrifying age of darkness and decay\, these artifacts could be the keys to mankind’s salvation. But as the mystery at the core of this groundbreaking novel unfolds\, it is the search itself—for meaning\, for truth\, for love—that offers hope for humanity’s rebirth from the ashes. \nThe Sci-Fi Reading Group meets the third Monday of every month and is open to curious minds\, whether or not they’ve read this month’s selection.

SUMMARY:Sci-Fi Reading Group
DESCRIPTION:The Sci-Fi Reading Group will meet in the Quiet Reading Room from 7:00pm – 8:30pm to discuss Hammajang Luck by Makana Yamamoto! \nEdie is done with crime. Eight years behind bars changes a person—costs them too much time with too many of the people who need them most. \nAnd it’s all Angel’s fault. She sold Edie out in what should have been the greatest moment of their lives. Instead\, Edie was shipped off to the icy prison planet spinning far below the soaring skybridges and neon catacombs of Kepler space station—of home—to spend the best part of a decade alone. \nBut then a chance for early parole appears out of nowhere and Edie steps into the pallid sunlight to find none other than Angel waiting—and she has an offer. \nOne last job. One last deal. One last target. The trillionaire tech god they failed to bring down last time. There’s just one thing Edie needs to do—trust Angel again—which also happens to be the last thing Edie wants to do. What could possibly go all hammajang about this plan? \nThe Sci-Fi Reading Group meets the third Monday of every month and is open to curious minds\, whether or not they’ve read this month’s selection.

SUMMARY:Brattleboro Great Books Group
DESCRIPTION:In August\, the Brattleboro Great Books Group will be discussing Elizabeth Strout’s Pulitzer Award winning novel “Olive Kitteridge” on Monday\, August 4th\, 7:00 to 9:00 p.m.\, in the (not-so-quiet) Quiet Reading Room/Room D on the mezzanine of Brooks Memorial Library. Besides the Library’s copies\, several copies are available for purchase at Everyone’s Books on Elliott St. (270 pp. plus study questions\, $18) \n“At times stern\, at other times patient\, at times perceptive\, at other times in sad denial\, Olive Kitteridge\, a retired schoolteacher\, deplores the changes in her little town of Crosby\, Maine\, and in the world at large\, but she doesn’t always recognizes the changes in those around her: a lounge musician…\,  a former student…\,t\,..\, Olive’s own adult child…and her husband… \nAs the townspeople grapple with their problems\, mild and dire\, Olive is brought into a deeper understanding of herself and her life–sometimes painfully\, but always with ruthless honesty. “Olive Kitteridge” offers profound insights into the human condition–its conflicts\, its tragedies and joys\, and the endurance it requires.” (from the back cover blurb) \nIn September\, choose your favorite Emily Dickinson poem  (or two or three) and read it aloud; then we will discuss. Emily Dickinson favorite poems are also on reserve at Everyone’s Books. \nFor further information\, call Michael Landis at (802) 257-1851\, or email him at emagicmtman@gmail.com

SUMMARY:Sci-Fi Reading Group
DESCRIPTION:The Sci-Fi Reading Group will meet in the Quiet Reading Room from 7:00pm – 8:30pm to discuss The Practice\, the Horizon\, and the Chain by Sofia Samatar! \nThe boy was raised as one of the Chained\, condemned to toil in the bowels of a mining ship out among the stars. His whole world changes—literally—when he is yanked “upstairs” and informed he has been given an opportunity to be educated at the ship’s university alongside the elite.Overwhelmed and alone\, the boy forms a bond with the woman he comes to know as “the professor\,” a weary idealist and descendent of the Chained who has spent her career striving for validation from her more senior colleagues\, only to fall short at every turn.Together\, the boy and the woman will embark on a transformative journey to grasp the design of the chains that fetter them both—and are the key to breaking free. \nThe Sci-Fi Reading Group meets the third Monday of every month and is open to curious minds\, whether or not they’ve read this month’s selection.

SUMMARY:Exploring the Afterlife: Learning from Experts and Personal Experiences
DESCRIPTION:Have you had a near-death experience or communicated with a deceased loved one through a medium? Have you contemplated the possibility of reincarnation or had an experience about a past life? Do you wonder what awaits us in the afterlife? Western culture tends to dismiss or even disparage paranormal phenomena. But evidence is available to answer many questions about the afterlife. \nIn this five-part evening series on Tuesdays from June 17th to July 15th\, we will do three things: 1) read books by experts on near-death experiences\, scientific instruments and experiments in paranormal research\, out-of-body experiences\, and the work of reputable mediums; 2) raise questions and concerns about the evening’s topic; and 3) share personal experiences of paranormal phenomena in a safe environment. Each participant will choose a book from a provided list to report on. Participants are strongly encouraged to attend all sessions. \nThe group will be led by hospice chaplain and former social worker Diane Southard and Valerie Abrahamsen\, author of Paranormal: A New Testament Scholar Looks at the Afterlife (2015). \nParticipants are encouraged to contact Valerie at www.wisdomwordsppf.org/contact/ as soon as possible to obtain the book list and additional information. Adults over 18 are invited!

SUMMARY:Sci-Fi Reading Group
DESCRIPTION:The Sci-Fi Reading Group will meet in the Quiet Reading Room from 7:00pm – 8:30pm to discuss The Resisters by Gish Jen! \nThe time: not so long from now. The place: AutoAmerica\, a country surveilled by one “Aunt Nettie\,” a Big Brother that is part artificial intelligence\, part internet\, and oddly human—even funny. The people: divided. The “angelfair” Netted have jobs and\, what with the country half under water\, literally occupy the high ground. The Surplus live on swampland if they’re lucky\, on water if they’re not. \nThe story: To a Surplus couple—he once a professor\, she still a lawyer—is born a girl\, Gwen\, with a golden arm. Her teens find her happily playing in an underground baseball league\, but when AutoAmerica faces ChinRussia in the Olympics\, Gwen finds herself in dangerous territory\, playing ball with the Netted even as her mother battles this apartheid-like society in court. \nThe Sci-Fi Reading Group meets the third Monday of every month and is open to curious minds\, whether or not they’ve read this month’s selection.

SUMMARY:Sci-Fi Reading Group
DESCRIPTION:The Sci-Fi Reading Group will meet in the Quiet Reading Room from 7:00pm – 8:30pm to discuss To Be Taught\, If Fortunate by Becky Chambers: \nAt the turn of the twenty-second century\, scientists make a breakthrough in human spaceflight. Through a revolutionary method known as somaforming\, astronauts can survive in hostile environments off Earth using synthetic biological supplementations. They can produce antifreeze in subzero temperatures\, absorb radiation and convert it for food\, and conveniently adjust to the pull of different gravitational forces. With the fragility of the body no longer a limiting factor\, human beings are at last able to journey to neighboring exoplanets long known to harbor life. \nA team of these explorers\, Ariadne O’Neill and her three crewmates\, are hard at work in a planetary system fifteen light-years from Sol\, on a mission to ecologically survey four habitable worlds. But as Ariadne shifts through both form and time\, the culture back on Earth has also been transformed. Faced with the possibility of returning to a planet that has forgotten those who have left\, Ariadne begins to chronicle the story of the wonders and dangers of her mission\, in the hope that someone back home might still be listening. \nThe Sci-Fi Reading Group meets the third Monday of every month and is open to curious minds\, whether or not they’ve read this month’s selection.
