Find out some great new reads as PJ and Bonnie discuss what they've been reading lately -- and whether you should, too.
Atascocita Branch Library's Lit Chat was originally Lunch 'n' Lit, the monthly book club for adults. There are still months when the group selects a book to read together, but now months where you share what you've been reading lately. Let us know if you've read one of the titles talked about here or something you think we all should read!
