ABOUT THE EVENT
Books on Tap, Phoenixville Public Library’s book discussion group for adults in their 20s and 30s, will meet next on Tuesday, February 22 at 7:00 PM at Sedona Taphouse, 131 Bridge St., Phoenixville. The group will discuss M.R. Carey’s bestselling novel, The Girl with All the Gifts. Melanie is a very special girl. Dr. Caldwell calls her “our little genius.” Every morning Melanie waits in her cell to be collected for class. When they come for her, Sgt. Parks keeps his gun pointing at her while two of his people strap her into the wheelchair. She thinks they don’t like her and jokes that she won’t bite–but they don’t laugh. Melanie loves school–learning about sums and spelling and the world outside the classroom and the children’s cells. She tells her favorite teacher all the things she’ll do when she grows up. But why does it make Miss Justineau so sad? A physical or audio copy of this books may be reserved at www.ccls.org. An eBook or eAudiobook copy may be reserved at https://chester.overdrive.com. This event is free and open to the public. Food and beverages will be available for purchase. Email Christine Shaffer at shaffer.m.christine@gmail.com for more information.
