February at the Holmes Public Library

February 3, 2023 By Deborah Anderson, Express Staff

On February 14 the afternoon bookclub will meet to discuss “The Engineer’s Wife”  by Tracy Emerson Wood.  This novel is a fictional account of the construction of the Brooklyn Bridge and the contribution engineer Emily Roebling played in the building when her engineer husband became ill.  “Lafayette in the Somewhat United States” by Sarah Vowell  is the selection for the nonfiction bookclub meeting on February 15 at 6 p.m.  This well-researched  book chronicles General Lafayette’s time in Washington’s Army.   Second Chapters, the book club co-sponsored by the Halifax COA, will meet on Thursday, Feb. 17 at 2 p.m.  to discuss the book “Nine Lives” by Peter Swanson. This book has the feel of an Agatha Christie story.  All book clubs meet at the Holmes Public Library in the Community Room. During the month of February, the Holmes Public Library will be collecting new pajamas for the annual Boston Bruins PJ Drive for kids in need.  Donations will be going to the DCF/Wonderfund and Cradles to Crayons
