Novel Book Club – Thursday March 24, 2022, 6:00 pm – 7:00 pm

Our Novel Book Club resumes in-person meetings.  The March book is: The Lost Apothecary by Sarah Penner.  Hidden in the depths of eighteenth-century London, a secret apothecary shop caters to an unusual kind of clientele. Women across the city whisper of a mysterious figure named Nella who sells well-disguised poisons to use against the oppressive men in their lives. But the apothecary’s fate is jeopardized when her newest patron, a precocious twelve-year-old, makes a fatal mistake, sparking a string of consequences that echo through the centuries.  Pop by the library to pick up your copy.
