SUMMARY:Book Club - Speak
DESCRIPTION:Join us for our Monthly Book Club\, where book lovers come together to discuss a wide range of literary genres\, from contemporary fiction to timeless classics. Each month\, we select a new book to dive into and explore its themes\, characters\, and plot twists in a friendly and welcoming environment. Whether you’re a seasoned reader or just looking to start a new hobby\, our book club offers a great opportunity to share your thoughts\, discover new authors\, and meet fellow literature enthusiasts. \nThis month we’ll be discussing the book Speak by Laurie Halse Anderson. Freshman year at Merryweather High is not going well for Melinda Sordino. She busted an end-of-summer party by calling the cops\, and now her friends—and even strangers—all hate her. So she stops trying\, stops talking. She retreats into her head\, and all the lies and hypocrisies of high school become magnified\, leaving her with no desire to talk to anyone anyway. But it’s not so comfortable in her head\, either—there’s something banging around in there that she doesn’t want to think about. She can’t just go on like this forever. Eventually\, she’s going to have to confront the thing she’s avoiding\, the thing that happened at the party\, the thing that nobody but her knows. She’s going to have to speak the truth. \nBooks will be available for checkout at the library. We can’t wait to see you there!

SUMMARY:Introvert Book Club
DESCRIPTION:You go out for coffee with your extroverted friend\, under the guise of reading together. They engage in small talk\, asking you what you’re reading and vise versa. You think you’re finished talking and begin reading\, only to be interrupted again\, and again\, and again. What was once companionable silence has turned into a conversation. If you find this is a common occurrence\, then this is the program for you! Come share your current read with others\, then quietly read uninterrupted in our cozy reading nook! No socializing required!

SUMMARY:Seed Swap Giveaway - Nine Square Feet
DESCRIPTION:Nine Square Feet is partnering with 45 Iowa libraries to host the largest simultaneous statewide seed swap ever on National Seed Swap Day.  And the Orange City Public Library is one of them! \nLike a traditional seed swap\, “swappers” are encouraged to bring packaged and labeled seeds\, saved from plants grown last year\, to swap and share with the community.  But unlike most seed swaps\, free seeds are available to all attendees\, even those that have no seeds to swap.  Every adult attendee can select up to five free seed packets\, and children under 12 can pick two free packets of their very own. \nNine Square Feet has identified veggie and herb varieties suited for small space gardeners and selected easy-to-grow\, tried-and-true garden staples for beginners. Experienced gardeners come to find something unique and special that they’ve never grown before!
