πŸ“šPick up a copy and join our Book Club!πŸ“š

For the month of August, the Solon Book Club is reading No Time Like the Future by Michael J. Fox.

In No Time Like the Future: An Optimist Considers Mortality, Michael shares personal stories and observations about illness and health, aging, the strength of family and friends, and how our perceptions about time affect the way we approach mortality. Thoughtful and moving, but with Fox's trademark sense of humor, his audiobook provides a vehicle for reflection about our lives, our loves, and our losses.

Pick up a copy at the front desk!
