Sunday, February 26, 5pm – In the Shallows Book Club

In the Shallows is a book club that doesn’t take itself too seriously. Take some time for yourself to read a book for pure pleasure and escapism, then come and spend time talking about it, bring a book or 2 that you’ve already read to swap with other members, and maybe enjoy a beer.

February Title:

The Lost Apothecary by Sarah Penner

Description (from PPLC):

Hidden in the depths of eighteenth-century London, a secret apothecary shop caters to an unusual kind of clientèle. Women across the city whisper of a mysterious figure named Nella who sells well-disguised poisons to use against the oppressive men in their lives. But the apothecary’s fate is jeopardized when her newest patron, a precocious twelve-year-old, makes a fatal mistake, sparking a string of consequences that echo through the centuries. Meanwhile in present-day London, aspiring historian Caroline Parcewell spends her tenth wedding anniversary alone, running from her own demons. When she stumbles upon a clue to the unsolved apothecary murders that haunted London two hundred years ago, her life collides with the apothecary’s in a stunning twist of fate, and not everyone will survive.

Pinellas Public Library Coop has 59 copies of this book, along with 4 ebooks, 7 eAudio, and 10 CD copies.

In the Shallows will meet the last Sunday of the month (pending other events) at 5pm. Future books will be determined at the meeting.
