Discuss the latest best sellers with the Moorhead Public Library! This month we'll meet to discuss "The Bell in the Lake" by Lars Mytting.

Join the Moorhead Public Library's Best Sellers Book Club and see what the buzz is about in popular books! This September, in conjunction with the One Book, One Community program, the group will discuss The Bell in the Lake by Lars Mytting. This historical epic takes place in 1879 Norway, as a young woman's fate connects with the mystical bells of her small village's stave church. This international bestseller weaves religion, superstition, and the mysterious links between past and future. 

Come see the author speak at Concordia College's Knutson Campus Center Centrum on September 29th! Check out more information about One Book, One Community at the website, here.

The Best Sellers Book Club is a Monday Meetup on the second Monday of each month!
