Mystery Book Club – Elsa Hart Series
Our three-month exploration of Elsa Hart’s “Li Du” series begins with Jade Dragon Mountain. Because the plot hinges around a predicted solar eclipse, this book discussion is also part of our Parchment Community Library Eclipse Series.
Join us for other Eclipse-related programs:
Wednesday, February 21, 6:30 p.m. – The Great North American Eclipse: Kalamazoo Astronomical Society President Richard Bell will give a preview of the total solar eclipse that will happen on April 8, explain why solar eclipses occur, and show how to view them safely.
