The midnight library

When Nora Seed finds herself in the Midnight Library, she has a chance to make things right. Up until now, her life has been full of misery and regret. She feels she has let everyone down, including herself. But things are about to change. The books in the Midnight Library enable Nora to live as if she had done things differently. With the help of an old friend, she can now undo every one of her regrets as she tries to work out her perfect life. But things aren't always what she imagined they'd be, and soon her choices place the library and herself in extreme danger. Before time runs out, she must answer the ultimate question: what is the best way to live?

Book Club: Under This Unbroken Sky by Shondi Mitchell

Time: 7:00 pm - 8:00 pm
Location: Dr. Folkins Community School

Book club consists of a few snacks, tea, hot chocolate and visiting.

Under this unbroken sky : a novel

"Utterly gripping. Epic in scope, this tale of family feuds, violence and hardship follows the fortunes of Theo Mykolayenko, a Ukrainian survivor of Stalin's labour camps who starts a new life in the harsh Canadian Prairies. His mettle is tested to the limit by the land and his neighbours' hostilities, but eventually his fields are golden with corn and his family start to thrive. That is, until the return of his sister's malevolent, drunken husband, whose merciless greed threatens to undermine everything Theo has so resolutely worked for. Beautifully pitched and unsentimental in execution. Brilliant."
--Marie Claire


In the spring of 1938, Teodor Mykolayenko returns to his family after nearly two years in prison for the crime of trying to feed them. Given shelter by his sister Anna, his wife, Maria, and their five children barely survived on the harsh and brutal Canadian prairie landscape. Channelling a determination gained from escaping starvation and Stalin's crimes in the Ukraine, Teodor is committed to making a home. With unbending resolve, he takes to the land and as the crops grow, his family heals and strengthens, but their comfort is soon challenged: Anna's rogue husband returns with an unforgivable plan. Mesmerizing and passionate, Under This Unbroken Sky is an astonishing tale of family, love, betrayal, and the resiliency of the human spirit.

Book Club: All the Seas of the World by Guy Gaurielkay

Time: 7:00 pm - 8:00 pm
Location: Dr. Folkins Community School

Book club consists of a few snacks, tea, hot chocolate and visiting.

All the seas of the world

On a dark night along a lonely stretch of coast a small ship sends two people ashore. Their purpose is assassination. They have been hired by two of the most dangerous men alive to alter the balance of power in the world. If they succeed, the consequences will affect the destinies of empires, and lives both great and small.  
   
One of those arriving at that beach is a woman abducted by corsairs as a child and sold into years of servitude. Having escaped, she is trying to chart her own course--and is bent upon revenge. Another is a seafaring merchant who still remembers being exiled as a child with his family from their home, for their faith, a moment that never leaves him. In what follows, through a story both intimate and epic, unforgettable characters are immersed in the fierce and deadly struggles that define their time.  
  
All the Seas of the World is a page-turning drama that also offers moving reflections on memory, fate, and the random events that can shape our lives--in the past, and today.

Book Club: Sometimes I Lie by Alice Feeney

Location: Dr. Folkins Community School

Book club consists of a few snacks, tea, hot chocolate and visiting.

Sometimes I lie

Amber wakes up in a hospital. She can't move. Or speak. Or open her eyes. She can hear everyone around her, but they have no idea. She doesn't remember what happened, but suspects her husband had something to do with it. Moving from her paralyzed present to the week before her accident, to her childhood diaries, this brilliant psychological thriller asks: Is something really a lie if you believe it's the truth?
