The As the Worm Turns Book Discussion Group will discuss The Moonflower Vine by Jetta Carleton (Harper, $14.99). On a farm in western Missouri during the first half of the twentieth century, Matthew and Callie Soames create a life for themselves and raise four headstrong daughters. Over the decades they will love, deceive, comfort, forgive--and, ultimately, they will come to cherish all the more fiercely the bonds of love that hold the family together. Jackie Byers will facilitate the discussion. Space is limited, so please call to reserve your place. | 18

Historic Photos of Nebraska will take one back to sod houses and frontier forts, to one-room schoolhouses and laborers putting in a hard day’s work. It includes faces of both the famous and the obscure, cityscapes and farmers. The struggles are chronicled here, as are moments of triumph and achievement. With nearly 200 black-and-white images, this book strikes a tone that is sometimes poignant, sometimes humorous, but always faithful to the soul of Nebraska. Start: 2:00 pm
End: 3:00 pm
