=====Book Club=====

Not your average Book Club! It is more than turning pages. It is the first step to engage your community and get them into the library to discuss ideas around lyrics, novels, film, and comics. 

The Edge has themed this book club series aroung Apocalypse so that the series as well as the larger project has a through line.

//An apocalypse (Ancient Greek: ἀποκάλυψις apokálypsis, from ἀπό and καλύπτω, literally meaning "an uncovering") is a disclosure of knowledge or revelation. In religious contexts it is usually a disclosure of something hidden, "a vision of heavenly secrets that can make sense of earthly realities".[1] // (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Apocalypse)
