Book Discussions

---

      The Cascade Book Discussion group will meet at 10 am on May 15 in the library’s Wisner Center for some season-ending insights into “Apples Never Fall” by Liane Moriarty.

      "Apples Never Fall" is all about the Delany family, the parents, Stan and Joy, and their four children. After fifty years of marriage and with all of their children having left the nest, Stan and Joy decide to sell their tennis academy and start the golden years of their life.

      What follows is a glimpse into the semi-dysfunctional relationships of the entire family that winds up generously sprinkling healthy doses of angst, joy and humor into the story.

      “It’s an absolutely delightful book, and you can’t help falling in love with the characters, even with all their faults,” said Joe David, Friends volunteer.

       This is the last book in the 2022-2023 discussion season. The 2023-2024 season will begin in mid-September.

      Participation in the discussions continues to ramp back up to pre-pandemic levels, according to Sara Mosely, discussion moderator. “We had about 20 people join us in April,” she said. “It’s great to see book lovers coming out again to share their ideas and hear what others have to say.”
