Join us for Halloween fun at the downtown library! We're hanging out on Thursday, October 30th from 4:30pm to 6:30pm so we don't cut into precious trick-or-treating time.

Welcome to the Midnight Manor, a foreboding estate in quiet Midnight Springs. Twenty years ago, a terrible incident at the manor left it with a reputation for hauntings and curses. But a newcomer – the wealthy Viktor Gastin – has acquired the property and aims to restore it to its former glory (because it wouldn't be a horror premise without someone ignoring blatant signs of an evil curse).
It was a pleasure to burn.
This chilling opening line starts Ray Bradbury's sci-fi dystopian novel Fahrenheit 451. Read and discuss it with us on Friday, October 24th at 3pm!
Fahrenheit 451 follows Guy Montag, a fireman. Except, in Guy's world, firemen don't fight fires... they start them, specifically to torch forbidden books (and the houses where they're hidden). He gradually becomes disillusioned with his career in censorship enforcement, though, and starts to hoard a few books himself...
