Passport to Mystery
Tuesday Dec 19, 2023 at 1:30pm
60 minutesPack your bags and prepare for the first chapter in a tour around the world! Joins us every third Tuesday until June 2024, where we will discuss a title set in a different country and/or written by a foreign author.
When you pick up a copy of September's title, you will receive a Traveler's Guide to keep with you for the year, in which you may keep notes as you read, draw something from the book that has inspired you, or bring up points you'd like to discuss during the meet-ups.
At every meeting you attend, you will get your "passport" stamped. We hope to see you well-traveled by summer 2024!
