Book Club

Join us at 6:00 PM at Scotch Plains Tavern in Essex for an evening of thoughtful conversation and community as our Book Club discusses When We See You Again by Rachel Goldberg-Polin.

This moving memoir explores themes of love, loss, memory, resilience, and hope through the author’s deeply personal experience. Together, we will reflect on the book’s insights, share perspectives, and engage in meaningful discussion in a warm and welcoming setting.

Whether you’re a longtime member of the Book Club or joining us for the first time, we invite you to be part of the conversation.

Please RSVP by July 12 so we can provide an attendance count to the restaurant.
