Bella Vida Bookworms

February 19, 2025, at 10:30 am in Room A (the library)

Bella Vida is partnering with the SCV Library to bring you a dynamic and friendly reading group.  Each month the Bookworms will read a book provided by the SCV Library via eBook or paper edition.  The Bookworms will then meet to discuss the drama, intrigue, suspense, adventure and romance that unfolded in the chapters.

For February, the Bookworms will read  

An American Marriage by Tayari Jones

An American Marriage by Tayari Jones tells the story of Celestial and Roy, a married couple whose lives are turned upside down when Roy is wrongfully imprisoned for a crime he did not commit. The novel explores themes of love, race, injustice, and the impact of systemic racism on personal relationships. As Roy spends years in prison, Celestial struggles with her feelings, her career, and her commitment to their marriage. The book delves into the complexities of relationships, the toll of wrongful incarceration, and the difficult choices people make when faced with adversity. It’s a poignant reflection on the resilience of love and the frailty of human connections under pressure.

The SCV Library has paper copies, eBooks, as well audio-books available.
