We will meet next on Friday, April 24th, 2026. Same place, Same time. Mae will facilitate and Kim will bring our book choices.
This month, we will be reading Orbital, by Samantha Harvey. It is a snapshot of one day in the lives of six women and men on one of the last space station missions. This book has a lot of accolades:

And surprisingly, there seem to be plenty of both digital and physical books available through the Contra Costa County Library.
