SHS Book Club is starting a new book, Two Truths and a Lie, by April Henry- "An atmospheric and entertaining thriller perfect for snowy night chills." A game of Two Truths and a Lie starts out flirty and fun but devolves into something more sinister when one slip of paper reads, "I like to watch people die," and "I've lost count of how many people I've killed." See review here: https://www.kirkusreviews.com/book-reviews/april-henry/two-truths-and-a-lie-henry/Book club meets every Thursday during ST. New members are welcome, see or email Mrs. Raymond to sign up and reserve your copy by Friday, Nov. 10th
