Bookish Banter Book Club

Wednesday, December 2, 2026 · 6:30 PM – 7:45 PM

Children's Room — 86 W Main St., Merrimac, MA

Join Library Director Jodie for a new book club geared toward adults! We will meet the 1st Wednesday of each month from 6:30-7:45 p.m. at the Merrimac Public Library. New members are welcome! Please use the form to register. This month we will discuss The Uncommon Reader by Alan Bennett. A deliciously funny novella that celebrates the pleasure of reading. When the Queen in pursuit of her wandering corgis stumbles upon a mobile library she feels duty bound to borrow a book. Aided by Norman, a young man from the palace kitchen who frequents the library, Bennett describes the Queen's transformation as she discovers the liberating pleasures of the written word. Upon registering, you will be notified by the Library when copies of this month's title are available for pick up at the circulation desk. Contact Jodie with questions: jblouin@merrimaclibrary.org
