The Monthly Book Club reads and discusses a new book each month, from January through November. All of the books are suggested and selected by members each December. Join us as we discuss a variety of books from diverse authors on a wide range of topics. Anyone interested in participating in the Book Club is welcome to come! Books are available in advance for purchase or a copy may be checked out from the library.

Quarterly Classics Book Club

Thank you to our Discussion Leader, Jill Cook, for her dedication to this wonderful book group! The group held its final meeting in October and celebrated 15 years of reading classics together.

Monthly Novel-Teas Book Match

We think a good book and a delicious cup of tea are the perfect pairing. With our Adult Novel-Teas Book Match program, participants can sign up each month to receive an individualized book recommendation, with a complementary tea. Simply register, and complete the personalized Book Match Form, and our Adult Services Librarian, Mindy, will help you find your next book. Patrons must be 18+ to participate and spots are limited. For more information contact Mindy Farmer at 515-465-3569 or email mindy.farmer@perryia.org.

All Iowa Reads

Established in 2003, the purpose of All Iowa Reads is to foster a sense of unity through reading. Iowans are encouraged to come together in their communities to read and talk about a single book title in the same calendar year. All Iowa Reads consists of three programs, each with one title chosen per year: adults, teens ages 12-18, and kids ages 8-12. We will read the Adult Iowa Reads selection for the April Monthly Book Club.
