The FNE Staff Book Club started in 2011. We read a book each month, chosen by a vote, and meet a staff member's house to discuss it, and announce the next book. Our November title is "The Martian" by Andy Weir- have you seen the movie starring Matt Damon yet? I have, and it was awesome!
The Library is giving away a free paperback copy of "The Martian" for staff members. To enter the contest, leave a comment about why you love the FNE Staff Book Club- don't forget to put your name so I can enter you into the drawing! Winner will be drawn at random.

Lets see ??? I like book club because the group is so much FUN!!
Even though I'm not a regular member of the FNE Book Club, I know this group puts their heart and soul into everything they do, and that includes having fun!
1) I look forward to discussing different parts about the book as I'm reading, wondering what other's points of view are going to be
2) I love hearing what others thought were significant, many times they pick up on things I totally missed.
3) The snacks!!
4) Spending time with Harper and any other children that show up!
I try and read each selection that the group chooses (even when I can't find the books or attend the meetings, I put them all on my ever growing "to read" list). It's great to hear different perspectives and to fill-in-the-blanks because sometimes I am multi-tasking when reading and I skim over important pieces of information, haha!
Well, Janet took all mine.
I do really enjoy the discussions and hearing different perspectives and thoughts about the things the author leaves open.
Of course, the snacks are oh so tasty!
Well, the people are pretty nice too....
I LOVE the FNE book club! Although I try to read all the titles that we select, I do love seeing my wonderful FNE family and connecting them to my AME adopted family :) - Lilly
