Book Club Contact
Welcome
Welcome to Where the Wild Books Are!
If you love to read and share your opinions, this is the club for you. All Santa Fe College students, staff, and faculty are invited to join. We will meet asynchronously through an online discussion forum. There will be no set meeting times. You can participate in the club whenever you are able.
Where the Wild Books Are, beginning in Jan. 2024, will read 1 book per month based on a selected theme. The monthly book will have a discussion board dedicated to it on our Where the Wild Books Are Goodreads group. Once the theme and book for the month have been voted on, you'll find the winner posted here and on our Goodreads group.

Below is the book we'll be reading for April. Included is a list of libraries that carry a copy of that book including print books, eBooks, and audio books. The public libraries listed are suggested based on the communities that Santa Fe College serves. Please note that you may not have the ability to borrow from any/all these libraries.
Also, please know that while any Florida resident can receive a library card from the Alachua County Library District, only Alachua County residents can borrow online resources like eBooks.
Monthly Theme: Books featuring Libraries
The Woman in the Library by The beautifully ornate reading room at the Boston Public Library is completely silent one weekday morning, until a woman's terrified scream echoes through the room. Security guards immediately appear and instruct everyone inside to stay put until they determine there is no threat. While they wait for the all-clear, four strangers who had been sitting in the reading room get to chatting and quickly become friendly. Harriet, Marigold, Whit, and Caine each have their own reasons for being in the reading room that morning--and it just happens that one of them may turn out to be a murderer.
