Patrons of the ABLE library are welcome to join this book discussion. Books are available on loan from the library. Our Vermont Reads choice for 2021 is a novel in letters. It tells the paired stories of two very different teenage boys who are initially reluctant to participate in a pen-pal assignment from their high school English teacher, but ultimately grow well beyond the boundaries of the school project to reveal earth-shattering revelations about themselves and their families. Led by Suzanne H Brown.
