Community Book Club: Remarkably Bright Creatures by Shelby Van Pelt

Wednesday, August 27, 6:00 PM

After Tova Sullivan’s husband died, she began working the night shift at the local aquarium, mopping up floors and tidying up. Keeping busy has always helped her cope, especially since her eighteen-year-old son, Erik, mysteriously vanished on a boat over thirty years ago. Tova forms a remarkable friendship with Marcellus, a giant Pacific octopus living at the aquarium.

Marcellus knows more than anyone can imagine and deduces what happened the night Tova’s son disappeared. And now, Marcellus must use every truck his old invertebrate body can muster to unearth the truth for her before it’s too late.

Free and open to the public. Refreshments provided.
