Read about the magical, mystical, strange, and paranormal with other fantasy & science fiction lovers! Copies of each selection are available at the Circulation Desk approximately one month before the meeting. The Fantastical Fiction Book Club meets on the third Wednesday of every month at 6:00 PM. We welcome all new members! Subscribe to the "Fantastical Fiction Book Club" e-newsletter to receive book club reminders and updates. If you're unable to attend this meeting in person, we're happy to offer a hybrid meeting option! Contact the library at [email protected] or 508-238-2000, ext. 3 and we will provide a Zoom link. Please note that we require at least 24 hours notice. This month’s selection is: Legends & Lattes by Travis Baldree. “After a lifetime of bounties and bloodshed, Viv is hanging up her sword for the last time. The battle-weary orc aims to start fresh, opening the first ever coffee shop in the city of Thune. But old and new rivals stand in the way of success — not to mention the fact that no one has the faintest idea what coffee actually is. If Viv wants to put the blade behind her and make her plans a reality, she won't be able to go it alone. But the true rewards of the uncharted path are the travelers you meet along the way. And whether drawn together by ancient magic, flaky pastry, or a freshly brewed cup, they may become partners, family, and something deeper than she ever could have dreamed.” https://amesfreelibrary.assabetinteractive.com/calendar/fantastical-fiction-book-club-8/

She's currently on a remote island protecting mega-bestselling author Rosie D'Antonio, until a dead body and a bag of money mean trouble in paradise.
