It's mystery grab bag time again! This month, share your thoughts on the mystery/thriller title you picked from our brown bag, sight unseen. Fun every year and really a "mystery" read.

Please note: This event starts at 6 pm.

More than 50 mystery books published in the past year will be placed in brown bags and stapled shut.

Categories may include "historical," "suspense," and "cozy."

Inside the bag will be a list of four questions to consider while reading your selection.

On the night of discussion, come prepared to review the book in two minutes.

Always lots of fun!
