Join the Club. Pick a Book. Join the Discussion.

Be Kind!

Hey HFW! The HFW Book Club is meeting again on Saturday, August 9th from 9-11 am to discuss our next literary selection, Starter Villain by John Scalzi.

 

Facing a dead-end life as a divorced substitute teacher, Charlie's dreams of opening a pub are derailed when he inherits his long-lost uncle's supervillain business – a volcano lair and all. But this inheritance comes with more than just giant laser death rays; Charlie finds himself in a war against a new breed of villain: ruthless corporate predators. With the unlikely assistance of unionized dolphins, talking spy cats, and a formidable henchperson, Charlie must embrace his newfound villainy to survive in a world where being bad might just be the only way to come out on top.

 

As always, we'll be meeting virtually via Jitsi Meet, which allows you to join easily on any device. Visit the Jitsi website or dial in by phone.

 

Please mark your calendars for our monthly book club date - the second Saturday of each month from 9-11 am. We can't wait to explore this superhero science fiction novella together! Whether you've read the book or not, all are welcome to join the lively discussion. Just come ready to share your perspectives.
