We had a good discussion of this book tonight: The Midnight Library by Matt Haig
Last Tuesday of the Month book group will meet on December 9th at 7 PM on Zoom.
Because of Thanksgiving in November and Christmas etc. in December, we skip the last Tuesday of November and December, but meet partway into December, in this case December 9th.
Here is the information on our book we selected for December. If you are not on our distribution list and would like to join us, contact chrismonroe@comcast.net and I will add you to the list and send you the Zoom link.

We Solve Murders by Richard Osman
Goodreads Choice Award
Nominee for Readers’ Favorite Mystery & Thriller (2024), Nominee for Readers’ Favorite Audiobook (2024)
A brand new series. An iconic new detective duo. And a puzzling new murder to solve…
Steve Wheeler is enjoying retired life. He does the odd bit of investigation work, but he prefers his familiar habits and routines: the pub quiz, his favorite bench, his cat waiting for him when he comes home. His days of adventure are over: adrenaline is daughter-in-law Amy’s business now.
Amy Wheeler thinks adrenaline is good for the soul. As a private security officer, she doesn’t stay still long enough for habits or routines. She’s currently on a remote island keeping world-famous author Rosie D’Antonio alive. Which was meant to be an easy job…
Then a dead body, a bag of money, and a killer with their sights on Amy have her sending an SOS to the only person she trusts. A breakneck race around the world begins, but can Amy and Steve stay one step ahead of a lethal enemy?
400 pages, Hardcover; also available in Kindle, PB and Audible.
