SUMMARY:Horror Book Club featuring author Gretchen McNeil
DESCRIPTION:From eerie classics to pulse-pounding new releases\, embrace the thrill of chilling tales with fellow readers of all things macabre. \n\n\n\n\n\n\nMeetings take place via Zoom. Registered participants will be emailed meeting information prior to the event starting. \nClick here to request or download. \nABOUT THE BOOK \nWhen Jen Monroe hears her father’s remains have been found\, she returns home to disprove his death\, only to find the forests of rural Washington are hiding unimaginable horrors. \nSeven years ago Jen Monroe left behind her hometown of Barrow\, Washington after her father\, a forest ranger passionate about protecting old trees from the aggressive logging business\, vanished. She vowed never to return. Then she gets a text from her estranged mother: Her father’s remains have been found. \nIt seems impossible to Jen\, who had always believed her father was alive\, and she returns home determined to find out what happened. When her ex-boyfriend suggests a camping trip in the woods in her father’s memory\, it feels like the opportunity Jen has been hoping for: to find her father. To find the truth. But what she finds in the ancient\, impenetrable forest may be deeper\, darker and deadlier than she could have imagined—and it has no intention of letting her leave. \nContent Warning: This book may contain depictions of violence that may be disturbing to some readers. Reader discretion is advised. \nABOUT THE AUTHOR \nGretchen McNeil is the author of fourteen young adult novels for Disney*Hyperion and HarperCollins including the horror/comedy #MURDERTRENDING—the #1 YALSA Teens’ Top Ten pick for 2019—TEN\, which was adapted as the film Ten: Murder Island for Lifetime\, and the Get Even series which was adapted as the series Get Even and Rebel Cheer Squad: a Get Even series for the BBC and Netflix. Gretchen’s adult horror debut with DAW Books hit shelves in 2025\, and the follow-up WE ARE FOR THE DARK—which has already been optioned for film—will be released this fall.

SUMMARY:Put-in-Bay Island Traditional Oktoberfest
DESCRIPTION:Put-in-Bay Oktoberfest: October 10th-11th\nHeld in downtown Put-in-Bay under the big tent in DeRivera Park. This is one of the few events that everyone enjoys on a Sunday. Many island hotels and rental homes offer super special discounts for those staying the extra night after a long day of German food and beer. \nOktoberfest in Germany is one of the world’s most famous parties. If you’re lucky enough to have an opportunity to head across the pond and check it out\, take it. If\, however\, you can’t quite swing the trip to Europe\, the next best thing is at Put-in-Bay Ohio! So hold off on your Germany trip for one year more\, and celebrate Oktoberfest on the island instead!. We have a great weekend planned\, full of live music\, cabbage and brats\, plenty of beer and plenty of fun. It’s our own little tradition\, and while it may not quite top Bavaria\, it beats everything else in America! \nThere’s no better place stateside to enjoy Oktoberfest than Put-in-Bay. We can guarantee the party doesn’t shut down when the tent does. The tent is right downtown\, so just head on out and into one of Put-in-Bay’s famous downtown bars to keep the party rolling. Come Sunday\, you’ll be ready for a part two with less beer and more scrumptious German food before you ferry back to the mainland. \nInterested in coming to this event? Contact our favorite lodging partners!\n\nIsland Club Rentals (islandclub.com) – 216-898-9951\nPut-in-Bay Condos (putinbaycondos.com) – 216-898-1105\nCommodore Resort (commodoreresort.com) – 419-285-3101\nVictory Station Hotel (putinbayvictorystation.com) – 419-285-0120\nBird’s Nest Resort (birdsnestresort.com) – 419-285-6119\n\nAnd follow these quick links to plan the rest of your trip!\n\nThings To Do At Put-in-Bay\nGolf Cart Rental Information\nPut-in-Bay’s Restaurants And Bars\nFerry Information\n\nOktoberfest Event Info\nOktoberfest will be held Saturday and Sunday. The Saturday hours are 11:00 AM to 7:00 PM and the Sunday hours are 12:00 PM to 5:00 PM. A one-day pass will cost $5 and a two-day pass will cost $7. Children 12 and under will be free with an adult. Oktoberfest will be taking place in a large tent on Toledo Avenue across from the Boathouse Bar and Grille\, as usual. \nYou’ll find live music for the entirety of the event. One of the acts will be the Maxx Band\, famous on the island. The sauerbraten and wiener schnitzel will be available in abundance\, as will all the awesome German beer you can drink. This is an all ages event\, everyone will have a wonderful time! \nBook your stay for Island Oktoberfest weekend and get ready to have a great time celebrating German heritage and cuisine. Check out the options for accommodations\, and see what fits your fancy! \nLast year\, due to the State of Ohio and Governor’s orders regarding public festivals\, social distancing\, and masking\, we found local businesses celebrating inside their own bars and restaurants and shops instead of at the park with the usual mass gathering. But don’t worry! This will still be a great weekend\, so please come visit and enjoy!

SUMMARY:Pirates of Penzance
DESCRIPTION:The Pirates of Penzance is a lively and witty comic opera that blends romance\, satire\, and absurd humor. Created by the legendary duo W. S. Gilbert and Arthur Sullivan]\, the show follows young Frederic\, who has been mistakenly apprenticed to a band of soft-hearted pirates. \nSet along the rocky coast of Cornwall\, the story unfolds as Frederic celebrates his 21st birthday and prepares to leave piracy behind. He falls instantly in love with Mabel\, the daughter of the bumbling Major-General Stanley\, whose comically rapid-fire songs and exaggerated intellect make him one of the show’s most memorable characters. However\, a twist involving Frederic’s unusual leap-year birthday throws his plans into chaos\, forcing him to honor his duty to the pirates far longer than expected. \nFilled with catchy melodies\, clever wordplay\, and iconic songs like “I Am the Very Model of a Modern Major-General\,” The Pirates of Penzance pokes fun at authority\, duty\, and social conventions while delivering an irresistibly fun theatrical experience. Its enduring charm lies in its playful tone\, memorable characters\, and the seamless blend of humor and music that continues to delight audiences of all ages.

SUMMARY:Authors! with Susan Zurenda
DESCRIPTION:Susan Zurenda joins Authors! to discuss her latest book\, No Way Out but Through. \n\n\n\n\n\n\nThank you to our sponsors!\nThe Library Legacy Foundation | Huntington Bank | UToledo Health | Friends of the Library\nAbout the event\nJoin Authors! for a moving and profound evening with Susan Zurenda as she discusses her transformative third novel\, No Way Out but Through. Drawing from her extensive background in literature and a life-changing interview with a survivor of child marriage\, Zurenda explores the resilience of the human spirit and the power of vulnerability. This event offers a rare look into the meticulous research and deep empathy required to bring such a sensitive and important subject to the page. The evening features a 45-minute presentation followed by an audience Q&A session. Each ticket includes a first-edition hardcover copy of this hauntingly beautiful new work. \nAbout the book\nSet against the evocative backdrop of Pawley’s Island\, South Carolina\, and the stark landscapes of 1990s rural Oklahoma\, No Way Out but Through is a dual-narrative “frame story” centered on an unlikely bond. When Shannon Irwin\, an author grappling with her own family burdens\, meets Grace Ferrall\, she agrees to chronicle the younger woman’s shocking truth. Grace’s story reveals a harrowing past of being manipulated into an abusive marriage at just fifteen years old. As these two women from different generations sequester themselves to complete the book\, they must confront their inner demons and the untold stories of their pasts. It is a lyrical tale of survival\, trust\, and the redemption that occurs when we are brave enough to let ourselves be truly seen. \nAbout the author\nSusan Beckham Zurenda is an award-winning novelist who dedicated thirty-three years to teaching English at both the high school and college levels. Her debut\, Bells for Eli\, and its successor\, The Girl From the Red Rose Motel\, have garnered numerous accolades\, including the 2024 Patricia Winn Award in Southern Fiction. Twice a winner of the South Carolina Fiction Prize for her short stories\, Zurenda is celebrated for her unflinching yet compassionate portrayals of characters facing extraordinary difficulties. She lives in Spartanburg\, South Carolina\, where she continues to craft “period-perfect” Southern literature that captures the complexities of the human condition.
