Sharon Forks Library

Sharon Forks Meeting Room Side A

If you crave adventure, strange happenings, and thought-provoking conversation, this is the book club for you! Step outside of reality and discuss stories that’ll leave you asking “what if?”

We meet on the second Tuesday of each month at 7:00 p.m. at the Sharon Forks Library. This month’s selection is The Mimicking of Known Successes by Malka Older.

Speculative fiction is “a type of story or literature that is set in a world that is different from the one we live in, or that deals with magical or imagined future events” (Cambridge Dictionary). Speculative fiction is often used as an umbrella term for genre fiction or for narratives that do not fully belong in a particular science fiction or fantasy genre.
