Not Your Mother’s Book Club Reads We Have Always Lived in the Castle

Want some excitement in your book club? Check out Not Your Mother’s Book Club from the Aurora Public Library District, where you’ll get to read today’s hottest books from Booktok and beyond and discuss them with readers just like you!

This month, we will be reading We Have Always Lived in the Castle by Shirley Jackson.

Merricat Blackwood lives on the family estate with her sister Constance and her uncle Julian. Not long ago there were seven Blackwoods–until a fatal dose of arsenic found its way into the sugar bowl one terrible night. Acquitted of the murders, Constance has returned home, where Merricat protects her from the curiosity and hostility of the villagers. Their days pass in happy isolation until cousin Charles appears. Only Merricat can see the danger, and she must act swiftly to keep Constance from his grasp.

We will be meeting at the Local History Library @ The Depot on March 28th at 6:30 pm. Anyone age 18+ is welcome to attend! Visit the Aurora or Dillsboro Pubic Library to sign up and check out your copy today!

See you there!
