Read Between the Spines Book Club In-Person

Do you like talking about books? Join us at the Galena Branch for our new book club for adults! This month's selection is Eleanor and Park by Rainbow Rowell. Copies of the book are available to check out at Galena Digital Library for registered participants. 

About the book:

Bono met his wife in high school, Park says.
So did Jerry Lee Lewis, Eleanor answers.
I'm not kidding, he says.
You should be, she says, we're 16.
What about Romeo and Juliet?
Shallow, confused, then dead.

I love you, Park says.
Wherefore art thou, Eleanor answers.
I'm not kidding, he says.
You should be.

Set over the course of one school year in 1986, this is the story of two star-crossed misfits-smart enough to know that first love almost never lasts, but brave and desperate enough to try. When Eleanor meets Park, you'll remember your own first love-and just how hard it pulled you under.
