Big Library Read: The Four Corners of the Sky

You are invited to participate in the BIG LIBRARY READ!
May 15 - June 1

Join millions of eBook readers around the world reading one book. The Four Corners of the Sky is master storyteller Michael Malone's novel of love, secrets, and the mysterious bonds of families. Malone brings characters to life as only he can, exploring the questions that defy easy answers: Is love a choice or a calling? Why do the ties of family bind so tightly? And, is forgiveness a gift to others or a gift we give ourselves? 

The eBook is available from: http://listennj.lib.overdrive.com (with a valid library card)

Read the book and tell us what you think on Facebook!

We will also be discussing The Four Corners of the Sky on Thursday, June 13, 7:30pm at Kennedy Library. Please register for this special book discussion at Kennedy Library's Information Desk or by calling 732-463-1633, ext. 6.
