SUMMARY:Babies at the Bookshop
DESCRIPTION:We love Thursdays! There aren’t a lot of opportunities for moms and caregivers to meet and socialize with their little ones. While Rocco’s Reading Room is always available for visits\, the Purple Couch would like to fill that gap by providing the time and the soft space filled with some toys and board books for little ones to explore\, giving moms and caregivers an opportunity to connect.

SUMMARY:Fiction Book Club - The Pirate Queen by Ariel Lawhon
DESCRIPTION:Join us to discuss this sweeping historical adventure inspired by the life of Grace O’Malley\, the legendary Irish folk heroine. \nCLICK HERE TO REGISTER \n\n\nA sweeping historical adventure inspired by the life of Grace O’Malley\, the legendary Irish folk heroine. \n\n\n\n\nVenture onto the high seas with the thrilling latest from the New York Times bestselling author of The Frozen River and I Was Anastasia. \nGrace O’Malley was born to be a sea captain. But despite her natural skill on the water\, Grace learns early that her dreams of a life at the helm are not compatible with the expectations of her noble family. As the only daughter of a powerful chieftain\, her role is to secure a strong alliance and bear children. But when she’s sent to foster with a nearby clan\, Grace falls for a clever and open-minded second son—a man she cannot have. \nMarried off against her will to a brutal warrior\, Grace performs her duty\, all the while gathering followers loyal to her\, and consolidating her husband’s power\, only to be ousted from his lands. But this betrayal offers Grace the opportunity to return to sea\, finally leading clan O’Malley’s mighty fleet. Just as she finds true independence\, Queen Elizabeth’s incursions into Ireland grow bolder and Grace must fight to defend her land\, her ships\, and the people she loves most against the cruel and power-hungry English deputies\, who will stop at nothing to check her influence. \nKeenly observed and fiercely written\, Ariel Lawhon’s new action-packed novel channels the untamed beauty and harsh realities of sixteenth-century Ireland\, as seen through the eyes of an unforgettable heroine who rightly became “the Pirate Queen of Ireland.”
