Field Notes Book Group

Join the Field Notes Book Group in the STEM Room downstairs on January 15 from 11 to 12:30, when we will be discussing the January selection, No Gods, No Monsters by Cadwell Turnbull.  Copies of the book will be available at the Circulation Desk.

No Gods, No Monsters starts out in a sadly familiar way: a young African American woman learns her troubled brother was shot and killed by the police.  The story twists, though, when she's given access to the police bodycam footage, and sees her brother changing from a huge wolf into a human being after he's been shot.  And then things start getting really weird, as other werewolves and creatures of the night start emerging and making themselves public.  This starts a chain reaction of strange events: suicides, protests, people disappearing, hate crimes increasing, and the real question no one asks is: why is this happening now?  What's really going on?

Join us for what promises to be a great read and a fascinating discussion.
