MOLINE, ILLINOIS (May 25, 2021) — Starting Monday, June 7, the Moline Public Library is inviting adult readers to participate in a brand-new book group. “The Art of Reading” is an all-online graphic-novel book club, with no set meeting times and no registration.

Get started by checking in on the book club’s web-page to see that month’s selected title. At the beginning of the month, we will post a little background on that month's title and why it was chosen. About half way through the month, we will post some thoughts and questions about the graphic novel we are reading. Then, at the end of the month, we will post our final thoughts and announce next month's read. At any time, you can comment on any of the posts, or respond to other comments (that's the discussion part of the book club).

We will be reading a variety of titles, some of which will occasionally handle mature themes that may not be suitable for younger readers.

To get started, visit The Art of Reading’s page at https://www.molinelibrary.com/artofreading. The reading list can be found at https://www.molinelibrary.com/bookclubs. All titles will be available for digital check out and download through hoopla! in addition to being available in the PrairieCat library system.

Questions? Call us at (309) 524-2470 or stop by the second floor Information Desk for more information.
