Join others at the Parker Memorial Library for Booked on a Thursday Book Club at 5:30 PM on Thursday, July 23rd. Conversation, fellowship, and refreshments will be centered on popular book titles for adults to discuss. This month’s book, “Remarkably Bright Creatures” by Shelby Van Pelt, will be discussed.
After her husband’s death and her son’s mysterious disappearance decades earlier, Tova Sullivan finds solace working nights at the Sowell Bay Aquarium. There, she befriends Marcellus, a clever giant Pacific octopus. As their bond grows, Marcellus uncovers clues about Tova’s missing son and uses his wits to help her face the truth. Shelby Van Pelt’s debut novel explores healing, friendship, and how understanding the past can open new doors to the future.
Participants are encouraged to check out the book by visiting the Parker Memorial Library at 500 West Broadway in Sulphur. You can also call the library at (580) 634-2315 for more information. The Parker Memorial Library is a branch of the Southern Oklahoma Library System.
