Gush and Hush book club introduced

Posted by Staff on Sunday, January 26, 2025

The Ada Public Library is introducting a new type of book group on the 4th Monday of the month at 6:30 p.m.

"The Gush and Hush Book Club. What???? It's where you get to talk amongst yourselves about that amazing book you reading. You may even get a little verklempt about it and then after everybody's done gushing, you get to hush and read."

"Yes, read. In a group setting. Just like you did back in school when you were trying to avoid listening to algebraic equations. We may even listen to a little Barbra Streisand while we read. Who knows?"
