Lafayette READS! might be just be the reading group you’ve been looking for! Our final selection this year is The Water Knife by Paolo Bacigalupi, a thriller set in the near future revolving around the battle for resources in the Southwest.
Pick up an honor copy from the display in the Lobby, or reserve a copy in the catalog, and then join us for the discussion group on Monday, December 11 at 6 pm.
