The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo by Stieg Larsson

Another Thursday 7-8pm??  We almost have enough interest for another evening
book club.  Email or stop by the store to let us know your interest -- especially if other days
and times are good for you.

The featured title(s) are 15% off new or used copies purchased at Uppercase Books.   
Please join us!  Just come to a meeting or send an
email to let us know you're interested and
we'll get you on our bookclub list.

Note that
all bookclubs that register with our store get the bookclub discount.  Call or stop by
the store and ask for details.  If you provide us with your list of upcoming reads, we'll help to
locate used copies for your group.
