The Book Discussion Club of the Garrettsville branch of the Portage County District Library will meet on Tuesday June 19, 2018, in the library meeting room from 5-6 p.m.
The month’s selection is And Then There Were None by Agatha Christie. Christie was pleased with this murder mystery because the difficulty in writing it captivated her as her characters, Mr. and Mrs. U. N. Owen, gathered 10 strangers in an island mansion for employment or holiday. Due to distance and weather there was no escape as each invitee, accused of hiding a guilty secret, witnessed a murder.
Patrons may sign up for the Book Discussion Club at the Reference desk, where copies of the book are available.
The Library is located at 10482 South Street, Garrettsville, OH 44231.
