The Ada Public Library's next book discussion is Tuesday, April 3, at 7 p.m. to discuss "Snow Flower and The Secret Fan," by Lisa See.

In nineteenth-century China a girl named Lily is paired with a woman named Snow Flower in an emotional match that will last a  lifetime.  As the years pass, the two send messages on fans, compose stories on handkerchiefs, reaching out of isolation to share their hopes, dreams and accomplishments. But when a misunderstanding arises, their deep friendship suddenly threatens to be torn apart.
