Our Quest: To offer the opportunity to every person to Converse about books in Cordial, Literate and Intelligent discussions. To strive to Create and Support a community of Readers in which every person's opinion is Welcome and Valued, and through which we can get  to know and enjoy one another as we experience the Joy of Learning and the Exchange of Ideas through many different reading opportunities and genres. 
In other words, let's pick a book that we all read, then get together and talk about it! And, to accommodate today's busy lifestyles: You have a choice! The Hiawatha Public Library has a book club that meets in the evenings and two that meet during the day. You pick the one (or all!) that fit your schedule.
