Ben | 79 comments Adults Who Read YA is a new group led by retired librarian N. Gregg O'Brien and BPL staff. Our first meeting is Tue, Sep 22 via Zoom. Can't make it or registration full? Discuss the book here! We're talking about "The Hate U Give" by Angie Thomas, which is an award-winning book and 2018 Reading Across Rhode Island (RARI) selection. Leave your comments below or stay tuned for some questions!
