Afternoon Reader's Book Club
Wednesday, October 14th from 2-3pm The Last Thing He Told Me By Laura Dave The instant #1 New York Times bestselling mystery and Reese Witherspoon Book Club pick that's captivated more than two million readers. . . Before Owen Michaels disappears, he smuggles a note to his beloved wife of one year: Protect her. Despite her confusion and fear, Hannah Hall knows exactly to whom the note refers - Owen's sixteen-year-old daughter, Bailey. Bailey, who lost her mother tragically as a child. Bailey, who wants absolutely nothing to do with her new stepmother. As Hannah's increasingly desperate calls to Owen go unanswered, as the FBI arrests Owen's boss, as a U.S. marshal and federal agents arrive at her Sausalito home unannounced, Hannah quickly realizes her husband isn't who he said he was. And that Bailey just may hold the key to figuring out Owen's true identity - and why he really disappeared. Hannah and Bailey set out to discover the truth. But as they start putting together the pieces of Owen's past, they soon realize they're also building a new future - one neither of them could have anticipated. With its breakneck pacing, dizzying plot twists, and evocative family drama, The Last Thing He Told Me is a riveting mystery, certain to shock you with its final, heartbreaking turn. |
Programs
Restorative Yoga - The ultimate practice of doing less to achieve more. Restorative yoga is a deeply soothing, slow-paced class aimed at calming the nervous system and easing mental fatigue. Students use props (blocks, blankets, and bolsters) to fully support the physical body in comfortable, passive poses held for several minutes. There is no sweating, active stretching, or strength building—only pure, deep rest. Drop the to-do list and leave feeling completely replenished. This class is taught by Cathy Vick and meets each Tuesday evening at 6pm in the library's community room. Cost is $20 for each six-week session. All levels welcome!
