The title selected for July 30 is "Fuzz: when nature breaks the law" by Mary Roach.

An irresistible investigation into the unpredictable world where wildlife and humans meet.

The group meets twice monthly on Tuesdays mornings at 11:00 am in our small meeting room except during December around the holidays.  Books are usually provided by the library, but occasionally titles are selected for reading which the library does not own in sufficient quantity. The schedule is also subject to change without notice due to unavailability of titles. Suggestions for titles are always welcomed!
