Bookmarks: Where the Crawdads Sing
Friday, November 16, 2:00 pm
Library Meeting Room
Patricia Klewer will review Where the Crawdads Sing by Delia Owens. For years, rumors of the “Marsh Girl” have haunted Barkley Cove, a quiet town on the North Carolina coast. So in late 1969, when handsome Chase Andrews is found dead, the locals immediately suspect Kya Clark, the so-called Marsh Girl. But Kya is not what they say. Sensitive and intelligent, she has survived for years alone in the marsh that she calls home, finding friends in the gulls and lessons in the sand. Then the time comes when she yearns to be touched and loved. When two young men from town become intrigued by her wild beauty, Kya opens herself to a new life–until the unthinkable happens. This program will be offered at the Westchester Township Museum in Chesterton on Thursday, November 15 at 2:00 pm.

Films on DVD Series: Finding Your Feet
Sunday, November 18, 2:00 pm
Library Meeting Room
The Films on DVD Fall series is a collaboration with Purdue Northwest. When Sandra Abbot discovers that her husband of 40 years is having an affair with her best friend, she seeks refuge in London with her estranged older sister, Bif. The two could not be more different–Sandra is a fish out of water next to her outspoken, serial-dating, free-spirited sibling. But different is just what Sandra needs at the moment. A feel-good romantic comedy that proves it’s never too late to find love. Rated PG-13. The film is shown in collaboration with the Purdue Northwest Odyssey Arts and Cultural program.
