BROWARD COUNTY, FL - Broward
County Library Director Allison Grubbs has announced six selections for her
popular, interactive Director's Book Club discussions that take place
online and in-person at various libraries.
"Each book is exciting and engrossing, with strong, powerful women driving their own story," says Grubbs. All of the 2022 Director's Book Club selections are true stories, with the exception of Circe, which is fiction based on a Greek myth.
The selections cover a wide range of personalities and destinations. Geographically, they range from the Appalachian Mountains to Chinatown, to the Mississippi Delta...darting back in time to voyage from ancient Greece to Graceland, ending in Maine.
"Reading acquaints us with our world and the extraordinary people who occupy it with us," says Grubbs. "I hope readers share my sense of adventure and my delight in stellar stories."
All Director's Book Club titles are available at Broward County Library, some of which can be accessed in multiple formats, including print and downloadable eAudiobooks or eBooks. Free copies of the graphic novel The Best We Could Do, the NEA Big Read 2022 book selection, are available at all Broward County Library locations while supplies last.
