This month’s book is Small Things Like These, a by Claire Keegan.

It's Christmas season 1985 and Bill Furlong is a coal merchant and family man in a small Irish town. Early one morning, while delivering an order to the local convent, Bill makes a discovery that forces him to confront both his past and the complicit silences of a town controlled by the church. An international bestseller, Small Things Like These is a deeply affecting story of hope, quiet heroism, and empathy.

Everyone is invited to join in the conversation! We'll meet in the Courtyard at 7pm.
