Dress yourself in your finest magical attire and join us on a trip to Diagon Alley for games, crafts, treats, and a film screening, all at the Cedar Falls Public Library.

NEW BOOK CLUB TITLES

Staff ShelfieThis issue's staff shelfie is Jessica from the Circulation Department, and her pick for this issue is Transcription, the latest novel by Kate Atkinson. Jessica says, "Kate Atkinson is one of my favorite current authors. And I love reading about how World War II was experienced outside of the United States, I find it fascinating. The protagonist's escapades as a spy exposed issues that are eerily relevant to the politics of today. A great slow-burning, character-driven novel."
