Get ready for the new California Book Group that begins in June at Menlo Park Library

The Menlo Park Library has a brand-new, in-person book discussion group.

The California Book Group will meet quarterly at the Library. Books to be discussed include those set in California — or by authors who live in or are from California.

The first is How Much of These Hills Is Gold, by C Pam Zhang.

In the twilight of the American gold rush, two siblings are on the run in an unforgiving landscape — trying not just to survive, but also to find a home.

This first California book discussion will take place on Sunday, June 1, 2025 from 3:00 to 4:15 pm — so start reading now.
