Join us for a discussion of "Saturday Night at the Lakeside Supper Club" by J. Ryan Stradal. Explore the themes of family traditions, restaurant life, and the charm of small-town Minnesota.
This fall, the 2025 Summit County Community Read initiative will delve into the ways food connects cultures and communities — through shared traditions, culinary creativity, and personal stories. Throughout September and October, Akron-Summit County Public Library has joined other libraries across the county in hosting book discussions and educational events inspired by the themes explored in the novel.
