What we’re about
Our book clubs cover a range of topics and genres, and happen at different locations. Read the book and gather with your community to chat about it.
IMPORTANT: A fake email has been circulating to authors asking them to be featured in our book clubs. OCLS will never request money from anyone to feature a book in our book clubs. If you receive an email from us regarding a book club that appears suspicious, please forward it to mpr@ocls.org and we will investigate. Thank you!

·OnlineOnlineIn February the Hiawassee Book Club will discuss The Woman in the Library by Sulari Gentill.
In every person's story, there is something to hide...
The tranquility is shattered by a woman's terrified scream. Security guards take charge immediately, instructing everyone inside to stay put until the threat is identified and contained. While they wait for the all-clear, four strangers, who'd happened to sit at the same table, pass the time in conversation and friendships are struck. Each has his or her own reasons for being in the reading room that morning—it just happens that one is a murderer.
