Event Details

Hey there! We'd love to have you join our book club, where we meet monthly to chat about all kinds of books, from romance to mystery to sci-fi and beyond. Our meetings are a welcoming and friendly space where you can share your thoughts and ideas without fear of judgment. Join us to discover new worlds and wonderful friends!


This month's pick is "A Song to Drown Rivers" by Ann Liang, "an epic historical fantasy about womanhood, war, sacrifice, and love against all odds."

About the book: Xishi’s beauty is seen as a blessing to the villagers of Yue—convinced that the best fate for a girl is to marry well. When Xishi draws the attention of the famous young military advisor, Fanli, he presents her with a rare opportunity: to use her beauty as a weapon. All she has to do is infiltrate the enemy palace as a spy, seduce their immoral king, and weaken them from within.
