Don't always get the book read? This club is for you. This month's selection is "Your Guide to Not Getting Murdered in a Quaint English Village." Age 18 and up.

If you have the best of intentions about book clubs, but don't always get the book read, this is for you! If you want to try a new genre without committing to a full book, this is also for you. We'll be diving into short stories and novellas spanning all genres. This month, we'll be reading Your Guide to Not Getting Murdered in a Quaint English Village by Maureen Johnson and Jay Cooper. 

Book summary:
Considering a trip to a quaint English village? You’ll think twice after learning about the countless murderous possibilities lurking behind the bucolic façades, thanks to this illustrated guide from bestselling author Maureen Johnson and illustrator Jay Cooper—perfect for fans of cozy mysteries. A weekend roaming narrow old lanes, touring the faded glories of a country manor, and quaffing pints in the pub. How charming. That is, unless you have the misfortune of finding yourself in an English Murder Village, where danger lurks around each picturesque cobblestone corner and every sip of tea may be your last. If you insist on your travels, do yourself a favor and bring a copy of this little book. It may just keep you alive.
