The Book Chat group meets every month on the third Tuesday at 12:00 pm in the library meeting room. This month's title is The Wish by Nicholas Sparks.

The Wish by Nicholas Sparks: 1996 was the year that changed everything for Maggie Dawes. Sent away at sixteen, she meets Bryce Trickett, one of the few teenagers on the island. He introduces her to photography, a passion that will define the rest of her life. By 2019, Maggie is a renowned travel photographer. But this year she is unexpectedly grounded over Christmas, struggling to come to terms with a sobering medical diagnosis. She begins to tell the story of another Christmas, decades earlier—and the love that set her on a course she never could have imagined.
