Mysterious Minds book discussion group
This mystery discussion group of the Bel Air library was formed in February by librarians Nancy Smith, an avid mystery reader, and Amy Kraft, a newcomer to the genre. Sometimes the entire group reads a designated book, and at other times a theme is chosen, allowing each member to pick a related mystery. Recently members toured Tudor Hall (shown here), the boyhood home of John Wilkes Booth, and discussed not only the “mystery” of a conspiracy, but also assassinations in general.
Now reading: Christine Falls by Benjamin Black
Liked a lot: Ruth Rendell's End in Tears, Kate Atkinson's Case Histories and Charles Todd's A Test of Wills.
Kraft adds: We are a varied group with members enjoying everything from the more intellectual stimulating Josephine Tey to the less encumbered comedic abandon provided by Janet Evanovich. There are no mysteries that we would rule out as being unworthy of some sort of discussion or another!
We meet every first Wednesday of the month in the library at 7:00 p.m. and welcome newcomers. For more information, contact the Bel Air Branch of the Harford County Public Library at (410) 638-3151.
