Where parents unwind, and stories come alive.

Booked Till August is our monthly book club designed just for adults — parents, caregivers, and community members who want a moment to slow down, connect, and dive into meaningful reads. Each month, The Grown Shelf Pick sparks thoughtful conversation, laughter, and connection beyond the page.

Whether you’re looking to rediscover your own love of reading or simply enjoy an evening with fellow book lovers, Booked Till August is your space to breathe, reflect, and build community — one story at a time. Vote for September’s Grown Shelf Pick

    Voices Between the Lines (Teen Book Club)

    Third Wednesday of the Month

    Newest program created just for teens (ages 13–17). Each month, a small group of teens comes together to read a powerful book, share honest conversations, and record a podcast episode that amplifies their voices beyond the book club circle.

    With snacks, books, and microphones, Voices Between the Lines is more than a book club — it’s a platform for the next generation of storytellers.
