SUMMARY:October 2025 Book Group
DESCRIPTION:The Scandinavia Public Library book group will meet on Tuesday, October 28 to discuss “This Tender Land” by William Kent Krueger.\nFika (beverages and treats) begins at 3:40 p.m. with the discussion following at 4:00 p.m..\nCopies of the book are available to pick up at the library, or you can place a hold through Infosoup.\n\nThe unforgettable story of four orphans who travel the Mississippi River on a life-changing odyssey during the Great Depression.\nIn the summer of 1932, on the banks of Minnesota’s Gilead River, Odie O’Banion is an orphan confined to the Lincoln Indian Training School, a pitiless place where his lively nature earns him the superintendent’s wrath. Forced to flee after committing a terrible crime, he and his brother, Albert, their best friend, Mose, and a brokenhearted little girl named Emmy steal away in a canoe, heading for the mighty Mississippi and a place to call their own.\nOver the course of one summer, these four orphans journey into the unknown and cross paths with others who are adrift, from struggling farmers and traveling faith healers to displaced families and lost souls of all kinds. With the feel of a modern classic, This Tender Land is an enthralling, big-hearted epic that shows how the magnificent American landscape connects us all, haunts our dreams, and makes us whole.\nBook Group meets on the fourth Tuesday of each month from January through November. We do not meet in December. Watch our website calendar or our Facebook page for the most recent updates!\n\nWe read books across most genres as well as some non-fiction. Anyone is welcome to attend who has read, or is interested in, the current month’s book and would like to participate in friendly discussion. Members are welcome to attend one meeting or all of them as their interests and schedules permit.\n
