Cover to Cover Book Club (Virtual)2020-08-20T15:00:00If you’re looking to be part of a book club, join the virtual version of our Cover-to-Cover Book Club hosted on Zoom online. For this month, our featured book will be “Dragonfly” by Liela Meacham. In this book, at the height of WWII, a handful of idealistic young Americans receive a mysterious letter from the government, asking them if they are willing to fight for their country. The men and women from very different backgrounds - a Texan athlete with German roots, an upper-crust son of a French mother and a wealthy businessman, a dirt-poor Midwestern fly fisherman, an orphaned fashion designer, and a ravishingly beautiful female fencer - all answer the call of duty, but each for a secret reason of her or his own. They bond immediately, in a group code-named Dragonfly. There will be two meetings hosted this day, one in the afternoon and the second in the evening. The Zoom link will be sent to registered attendees the day of the book club meeting.
