Banned Book Week Reading Challenge
September 28th-October 13th
How many banned books can you read in two weeks? We thought we’d give you a challenge to find out. Starting TODAY and ending October 13th, we want you to read as many banned books as possible (hoopla has so many available or stop by the library with a list) in celebration of the freedom to read. Choose from a selection of books, audiobooks, ebooks, and/or comics. The person who reads the most will win some library swag AND a $25 gift card to the Greentoad Bookstore! Send us an email to let us know your final number by October 13th to on.ariel@4cls.org.
Virtual Book Club Tuesday October 27th 7:00pm
This month we are reading “The 7 1/2 Deaths of Evelyn Highcastle” by Stuart Turton.
Aiden Bishop knows the rules. Evelyn Hardcastle will die every day until he can identify her killer and break the cycle. But every time the day begins again, Aiden wakes up in the body of a different guest at Blackheath Manor. And some of his hosts are more helpful than others. With a locked room mystery that Agatha Christie would envy, Stuart Turton unfurls a breakneck novel of intrigue and suspense.
For fans of Claire North, and Kate Atkinson, The 7½ Deaths of Evelyn Hardcastle is a breathlessly addictive mystery that follows one man’s race against time to find a killer, with an astonishing time-turning twist that means nothing and no one are quite what they seem.

I am looking for an organized and meaningful book club for adults. I don’t see any at the library. Is there any interest?
Hi Deb, we have special book discussions throughout the year (1 in Spring, Summer and Fall) but not a book club that regularly meets. There is a friends book club but they run the program and you can contact them at friends.of.HMLOneonta@gmail.com. We do have a special Humanities NY Book Discussion Series coming up on Wednesdays this Fall on the Vote for Women. We will have an introductory meeting on Wednesday, August 30th but will also have registration for that program. We will be advertising for that soon. Hope this helps.
