'Beyond the Covers' meets in Newark tonight

The Sisterhood of Blackberry Corner by Andrea Smith is the poignant tale of Bonnie, whose life is suddenly transformed when her husband Naz and a group of fishermen find a blanketed baby on the banks of the Canaan Creek, South Carolina.

Together with best friend, Thora, and the rest of the hilarious, tough and all-too-human women from her church group, Bonnie creates an underground railroad for unwanted babies. But - one of these precious gifts will come back to haunt her.

Join the 'Beyond the Covers' book group as they explore and discuss this compelling novel of friendship and mother love, on November 20 at 6:30 p.m.

Because of renovations taking place at the Newark Public Library, the group will meet at 605 Mason Street, Newark, the offices of Michael Calarco, attorney.

The Beyond the Covers book club is sponsored by the Newark Public Library.
