Neurodivergent Adults Book Club

Join us for a book club for neurodivergent* (ND) adults, ages 18 and up! This group's mission is to provide a space for ND adults to find community with their peers and find joy in reading! This book club program takes place online over Zoom and will be facilitated by library staff. Registration is required. Instead of all reading a specific book, each month will have a different theme. Feel free to read anything at all that fits the theme somehow. Here are the upcoming themes: July A book by a black author August Written in another language, translated to English September Travel/traveler/travelling October Power November Family Please contact Sean at the Mason County Libraries (slotz@trl.org) with any questions. ===== *We are using neurodivergent (ND) broadly, with the knowledge that not everyone who could benefit from participating in this book club will identify with the neurodivergent label. From educator and advocate Sonny Jane Wise, "Neurodivergent is an umbrella term to describe anyone whose mind or functioning diverges from dominant societal norms. Functioning differently can mean thinking, communicating, socializing, processing, behaving, feeling and more. It can be acquired, genetic, an innate part of you or not. It's not just restricted to Autism and ADHD but also mental health conditions like bipolar, personality disorders & more."
