An enthusiastic librarian named Stacey Lampman, who has a passion for reading,
leads the Flo Valley staff and faculty book club. The book club consists of 8 to 10 women, who get together every
season of the year. At the meetings Stacey and the ladies make suggestions on
books they would like to read and then take a vote. The book they were reviewing
this time around was a novel by Stephen King entitled “11/22/63”. This book is
unlike anything Stephen King has previously written. In this piece King rewrote
history in attempt to stop the assassination of President John F. Kennedy. Jake
Epping, the main character and high school teacher in 2011 was ‘accidentally’
given the responsibility of going back in time to change the tragic events.
Even though Jake has witnessed first-hand that time could be changed; it is not
without its drawbacks. This book is a must read!

I had fun writing this piece and I did read the book. When the mini series debuted on Hulu, I was just as anxious for the next episode as if I were turning pages.
