#Pumpkin Spice and Everything Nice
There's so much to fall in love with about this time of year! Whether it's spooky season, autumn festivals, candied and caramel apples, or the ever-popular Pumpkin Spice Latte (or Pumpkin Spice Iced Chai Latte): There's nothing quite like finding just the right book or a group of people to talk about it with!
This October, join a Book Club! Not only will you get some great reading recommendations from fellow readers, but you might just bond with someone over a favorite fall treat (and maybe share a recipe or two).
And if you're looking for something on the spookier side, join us for a special Halloween edition of ComiClub Graphic Novel Book Club on Tuesday, October 31 at 6 p.m. at the Willow Branch Library. We will be reading and discussing Through the Woods by Emily Carroll.
Never miss out! Get book club emails, program reminders and more!
#Have You Taken the Challenge?
You may have heard about Jax Stacks, our year-round reading challenge for adults. Or the fact that you can earn cool prizes for completing at least 12 of the 16 categories. But did you know it has its own Book Club?! And that's not the only thing different about Jax Stacks. The location of the club changes every few months, allowing you to connect with fellow readers all across Jacksonville.
Get monthly Jax Stacks book recommendations to fulfill your chosen categories on our blog or by email or by requesting a personalized booklist.
