The book club met for the fifth consecutive month – which I think is a record! We again discussed a wide variety of books, including these three which either just have, or are very soon, going to be made into movies :
- Simon vs the Homo Sapiens Agenda (movie title: Love, Simon)
- The Hate U Give / Angie Thomas
- Molly’s Game / Molly Bloom
If books to movies are your thing you should check out the display case at the Burnaby Campus Library – we’ve got a whole bunch of books that have transitioned to TV or the big screen:
Other titles we talked about were:
- Younger Next Year / Chris Crowley and Dr. Harry Lodge
- Triumph of the City: How Our Greatest Invention Makes Us Richer, Smarter, Greener, Healthier, and Happier / Edward Glaeser
