Sharon Forks Meeting Room Side A

Step outside of reality and discuss stories that’ll leave you asking “what if?”

We meet on the second Tuesday of each month at 2:00 p.m. at the Sharon Forks Library. This month’s selection is The Familiar by Leigh Bardugo. This immersive historical fantasy novel centers around a sassy scullion who hides her Jewish ancestry and magical abilities during the Spanish Inquisition.

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).
