Community Room D

Join us for a discussion on this year’s Long Island Reads title, an intimate story about love and death.

Julia Morse passes away unexpectedly but desires one last summer in the community where her heart beats loudly and her fondest memories of life are. More importantly Julia wants to be assured that her grief stricken husband is engaging with those around him and immersed in his new journey. Visit the circulation desk for a copy of the book.
