Book Clubs

For kids of all ages, teens, and adults!

Children in grades K-2 are welcome to join our Early Readers Book Club!

This monthly program is meant to introduce excellent emerging reader books to children who have "graduated" from storytime and are being introduced to more formal "learn-to-read" techniques in school.

Registration is required, but participants will get a free copy of the book.

For October the club will be reading Bog Myrtle by Sid Sharp.

Check out our calendar for upcoming meetings!

Funding for this program is provided by the Bradford Youth Services Programming Endowment Fund.

Children ages 8-12 are welcome to join our Tween Book Club offered once a month.

Registration is required, but free!. You're welcome to bring suggestions for future books to read together! 

For November, the club will be reading and discussing No Place Like Home by James Bird.

Check our calendar for upcoming book club dates!

The 4 Seasons Book Club highlights notable works of fiction.

Club participants choose one title from a pre-selected field of 4 or 5 books chosen by a TCPL librarian and book club members on a related theme.

For Autumn 2025 the group will be reading and discussing A Witch's Guide to Magical Innkeeping by Sangu Mandanna.

Check our calendar to register for either the in-person discussion or the online Zoom session.

Adults are welcome to join us to discuss graphic novels in this bi-monthly book club. 

The next read for the series will be This Beautiful, Ridiculous City: A Graphic Memoir by Kay Sohini.

For more information and to register, check our upcoming events. If you have any questions, you can email Sophia at smckissick@tcpl.org. 

If you've participated in Break for Books over the past several years (almost a decade now!) you know it's a great place to go to get reading recommendations from your reading community, near and far.

This fall, we're going to read a book together! Join us for a unique community read, as we tackle the classic gothic vampire tale Carmilla by Joseph Sheridan Le Fanu and discuss virtually!

In November TCPL is hosting a special discussion of the book, The Preventorium, a memoir written by Interim Library Director Susan Currie about her time staying in a preventorium as a young child.

Currie will lead the discussion around the book, which was named the 2023 Best Memoir on Health/Adverse Childhood Experiences by Memoir Magazine.
