Copies of the next month's title will be available at the meeting and in the library, ask at the desk if you need help. New participants are always welcome! This month we are discussing Mother-Daughter Murder Night by Nina Simon. Nothing brings an estranged family together like a murder next door. High-powered businesswoman Lana is convalescing in a sleepy coastal town with her adult daughter when her teenage granddaughter stumbles upon a dead body while kayaking near their bungalow. The women uncover a web of lies, family vendettas, and land disputes lurking beneath the surface of a community populated by folksy conservationists and wealthy ranchers. This program is supported by the Friends of the Sacramento Public Library.

Join us at Central Library on May 25 from 10 am to 2 pm for a forum focusing on the Transcontinental Railroad and its 155th anniversary. From 10 to 12, Director of the California State Railroad Museum, Dr. Ty Smith, will speak to the massive undertaking that was the Transcontinental Railroad, and then Dr. Raymond Douglas Chong, the great, great grandson of a Chinese worker who contributed to the railroad's construction will relay the personal experiences of one of the more than 20,000 Chinese workers who did so. After a complimentary lunch, independent filmmaker and historian, Min Zhou, will share a moving trilogy of short documentaries that offer a deep dive into the Transcontinental Railroad: Crossing Donner Summit, End of the Rails, and Land of Luck. As a joint offering of the US China Railroad Friendship Association, the California State Railroad Museum, and the Sacramento Public Library, the program is free and no registration is required to attend.  To RSVP for the complimentary lunch, please contact SPL archivist James Scott at [email protected] or 916-264-2795. We hope to see you there!     Image URL: https://s3.amazonaws.com/static.evanced.info/Customer/saclibrary/MERLIN_154613859_0354C88C3B604643872D969F73DEDE88SUPERJUMBO_59C72E7.JPG
