Welcome to the KPL Book Club Blogspot

Welcome to the internet home of the Kilbourn Public Library (KPL) Book Club. The KPL Book Club meets at the library once a month. A book is chosen for each month and then members of the book club meet the last Monday and Wednesday of every month for lively discussion and treats. While we can’t offer you treats via the internet, this KPL Reads blog was designed for those of you who would like to participate in the book club but don’t have time to join us at meetings. Each month KPL staff will post discussion topics and questions to get you “talking”. Join in the discussion by adding a post to the blog. Click on the word comments below the post you want to "talk" about and write your comment. Be sure to check back often to see feedback and comments.

This month the Kilbourn Public Library is doing something special for the December book club get together. We will be choosing from a selection of holiday books to read. Members will read their chosen book and we will have a short discussion on the titles we read.


We will also be watching the movie Extremely Loud and Incredibly Close. The movie is based on the book of the same name that we read for our November selection.

Anyone is welcome to join in this holiday book reading and movie night. Stop by the library or bookmobile and pick a holiday book to read. Or just come and watch the movie with us. We will be meeting on Monday, December 17 at 6:00 p.m. and Wednesday, December 19 at 1:30 p.m. Join us for book discussion, a movie and snacks.

What is your experience with movies with book tie-in? Would you rather read the book first or watch the movie? 
Do you have know of any movies made from a book that you thought were really well done or any that you thought were very poorly done?

What is your favorite holiday themed book?

Let us know what you think!
Happy Holidays.
