Celebrate Jane Austen’s 250th birthday by reading and discussing her novels. We’ll read one book each month until the big Jane Austen birthday festival in December!

Join us to discuss "Pride and Prejudice," Jane Austen's second and most famous novel (or is it?). We'll explore Elizabeth Bennet's evolving personal growth as she navigates love, misunderstandings and societal expectations with the proud and wealthy Mr. Darcy. 

Print copies of the book are available at our branches. Many eBooks are available on CloudLibrary, Libby or Hoopla; find eAudiobooks on Blackstone Unlimited, Libby, or Hoopla.
