Join us for White Rabbit's Murder & Mayhem Book Group! This book group will be meeting on the third Sunday of most months at 5pm.
Looking for some escapist reading with a who-done-it focus, ending with a little chatting and some nice people? Great conversations and super nice people! We hope you join us! Come to this one, come to all of them or come every now and then--you are always welcome and wanted here.
We typically meet for around 1.5-2 hours with a short break in the middle. If you haven't read the book, but would like to enjoy nice humans, listen to the discussion and maybe ask some questions...absolutely, come :)
Book is not included, but White Rabbit would love for you to use the public library or purchase from an indie! Water and bathrooms are available, and Black Ink will be open for treats or drinks if you so desire--thank you for not bringing in outside food or drink.
It is so helpful if you are able to purchase your ticket in advance--thank you if you are able! If the participation cost ($4.99) is not in your budget, please message us for a link to participate for free, no questions asked. Thanks for checking here or our website for cancellations, it will be posted at least 24 hours in advance.

"A long novel that at first is hard to put down. By page 200, impossible." —Stephen King
“Extraordinary . . . Reminds me of Donna Tartt’s 1992 debut, The Secret History . . . I was so thoroughly submerged in a rich fictional world, that for hours I barely came up for air.” —Maureen Corrigan, Fresh Air, NPR
“This expertly paced thriller …has the kineticism of a well-crafted miniseries.” —The New Yorker
When a teenager vanishes from her Adirondack summer camp, two worlds collide
Early morning, August 1975: a camp counselor discovers an empty bunk. Its occupant, Barbara Van Laar, has gone missing. Barbara isn’t just any thirteen-year-old: she’s the daughter of the family that owns the summer camp and employs most of the region’s residents. And this isn’t the first time a Van Laar child has disappeared. Barbara’s older brother similarly vanished fourteen years ago, never to be found.
As a panicked search begins, a thrilling drama unfolds. Chasing down the layered secrets of the Van Laar family and the blue-collar community working in its shadow, Moore’s multi-threaded story invites readers into a rich and gripping dynasty of secrets and second chances. It is Liz Moore’s most ambitious and wide-reaching novel yet.
