Four Seasons Summer Book Club

Join the Friends for our summer book discussion on Saturday, July 27 at 11 AM inside the Diamond Bar Library Windmill Room. The featured book is L.A. Weather by Maria Amparo Escandon. This book is part of the new Los Angeles County Library One Book, One County program, a reading initiative that celebrates collaboration, education, and conversation across our county where all LA County residents are invited to read one book together. Published in 2022, L.A. Weather is a New York Times bestseller that follows the Mexican-American Alvarado family during a year in LA “as they wrestle with impending evacuations, secrets, deception, and betrayal, and their toughest decision yet: whether to stick together or burn it all down.” Copies of the book will be available to borrow from the Diamond Bar Library.

Save the Date: Help us close out One Book, One County with a special celebration on July 27 at 5 PM at Gloria Molina Grand Park, featuring a musical performance from Banda Las Angelinas, resources, activities, and a special author talk with María Amparo Escandón.
