Description

This February, Rachel and Laura are turning the Month of Love on it's ear, bringing WCPL Library Assistant Savannah Neher in to talk about books where love goes horribly, terribly awry. (They also somehow end up in a heartwarming discussion about personal boundaries and loving yourself before you try to love anyone else.) All of this is in addition to information about our current building closure and more!
