David Benjamin, author and publisher will be discussing one of the best-loved genres of all readers -- mysteries! He will discuss the art of mystery writing -- his latest three-book mystery series is set in Wisconsin, and what makes a good mystery.

What grabs you when you read a mystery? What mysteries have drawn you in from the first page or first chapter?

We'll be choosing topics for 2022 and looking back at some of the photos from the past year.

This group is sponsored by the library and is open to the public.

We have members with all skill levels.  New members and visitors are always welcome!

Bring a treasured item, old or new, and share your stories. This is an opportunity to talk about something you’re passionate about or interested in!

Bring your latest present, an old heirloom, a thrift shop find – if it has a good story, we want to hear about it!

Each participant will have a few minutes to talk. If you would rather sit back and watch, that’s fine too.
