We will discuss two books at the March event: A Cafecito Story by Julia Alvarez (59 pages written in the original Spanish language and translated to English) and Fountain and Tomb by Naguib Mahfouz (117 pages). Because both books are short, we're doubling up! Both books are available to sign out at the library and they are yours to keep. Reading & Discussion will be held on Saturday 3/14/26, 2:00-4:00PM. Snacks and beverages will be potluck style-- bring something to share if you can but not required.
