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. Our featured book is “Saturday Night at the Lakeside Supper Club” by J. Ryan Stradal.
Throughout September and October, many libraries across the county will host a range of book discussions and educational events inspired by the themes explored in the novel.
