New Chapter Book Club presented by Librarian L. Brown
The Coral Gables Chapter, NSDAR, hosts a monthly book club dedicated to promoting literacy and building community through reading. Each month, participants will explore a current bestseller, gathering at the Pinecrest library for lively discussion and connection. The book club is open to everyone—members and non-members alike—providing a welcoming space to socialize, share perspectives, and engage with great literature. Hosted at the Pinecrest Library, it is a simple, enjoyable way to support the DAR’s commitment to education while fostering a love of reading in our community.
