Book Club – Champion Public Library
Join others at the Champion Public Library for a monthly book club on Thursday, May 1st at 5:30 PM. Conversation, fellowship, and refreshments will be centered on popular book titles for adults to discuss. This month’s book selection is “Starter Villain” by John Scalzi.
Charlie, a divorced substitute teacher living with his cat, dreams of opening a downtown pub. His life takes a turn when his long-lost uncle Jake leaves him his supervillain business, complete with a volcano lair. But the transition to villainy isn’t easy; Jake’s enemies—wealthy, ruthless foes supported by corporations—are after him. With the help of unionized dolphins, a hyper-intelligent spy cat, and a fierce henchperson, Charlie must fight back. In a dog-eat-dog world, he learns that sometimes, it’s better to be a cat.
Participants are encouraged to check out the book by visiting the Champion Public Library at 601 Railway Express in Ardmore or call (580) 223-3164. The Champion Public Library is a branch of the Southern Oklahoma Library System.
